Colorado experienced its costliest disaster in September 2013. A significant amount of damage caused by the 2013 floods took place in areas that were outside the mapped regulatory floodplain, known as the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). Recognizing the critical need to update hazard mapping and help inform local and state efforts to reduce such losses in future events, the State set out to reexamine various flood risks throughout the communities that were impacted by the 2013 floods., "May 25, 2017,", Online resource; title from PDF caption (viewed October 2023)

Innovation is key to economic growth. Each year, the Colorado Innovation Network issues a report on Colorado's innovation performance, which is based on an objective analysis. The 2013 report highlights where potential opportunities exist to ensure Colorado's continued competitiveness as an innovative state. These metrics are used to compare Colorado's performance to both the national average and a set of benchmark states., "The 2013 Colorado Innovation Report is a project of the Colorado Innovation Network (COIN).", Includes bibliographical references (p.

Throughout Colorado, youth are spending more time seated in front of televisions, computers, and video games and less time enjoying the outdoors.

This Roadmap is meant to guide the development of a range of high impact policies and programs to drive forward electric vehicle adoption across the state. It has three primary components: 1) a literature review and stakeholder engagement process that highlighted best practices and provided additional context into existing marker barriers; 2) a modeling exercise that explored the significant benefits to the State of adopting a set of "core policies" that set standards and provided additional supportive strategies for light-duty electrification; and 3) a detailed policy analysis that outlines key policy opportunities for the State to consider. This report contains modeling results to determine the potential costs and benefits created from the increased levels of light-duty (LD) vehicle electrification resulting from policy implementation within Colorado., "April 2022.", Includes bibliographical references., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed January 2023), Project No.: 0606101
The Colorado hydropower industry experienced rapid change in 2011. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) created in 2010 between the State of Colorado and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) forged a new path to expedite low-impact project permitting. As a result, projects that historically took three or more years for permitting were moving through the process at a record pace, in some cases taking less than six months. The Colorado Governor's Energy Office (GEO) recognizes the potential of low-impact hydropower resources in the state and the cost benefits of reducing the permitting burden. Streamlining the permitting process for low-impact projects creates new opportunities for the industry to utilize existing water infrastructure resources and maximize the benefit of Colorado's natural resources., "Primary Authors: Susan Carollo (SRA International) and Ryan Broshar (SRA International).

The State of Colorado has identified the use of cleaner transportation fuels as a priority to promote energy security, environmental stewardship, job creation, and low consumer costs. As part of that effort, the State has specifically identified natural gas as a viable, low-cost alternative to gasoline and diesel. The nation's energy future is improved with the use of natural gas because it is more affordable, better for the environment, and reduces dependence on foreign oil. The Colorado Energy Office (CEO) is seeking to develop an NGV implementation plan for the State. This study provides information that will assist CEO with cultivating that plan., for the Colorado Energy Office, prepared by Antares Group, Inc., "Submitted: June 10, 2013.", "June 5, 2013."-- Footer., Includes bibliographical references (pages 48-52), Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed June 2022)

The long-term vacancy of the Colorado Department of Corrections (DOC) Centennial Correctional Facility South (CCF South) represents a significant waste of a resource that could potentially hold great value for the State of Colorado (state). The 948-bed facility was partially opened in 2010 but was subsequently closed in 2012. Changes in state policy on the use of administrative segregation (its original intended function) and the absence of outdoor recreation yards have severely limited the potential utility of the facility. Efforts to lease or sell the facility to another jurisdiction have also proven fruitless. CGLs analysis indicates that a multi-faceted, coordinated repurposing of three DOC facilities offers the best strategy to make effective use of CCF South., prepared by CGL., "February 9, 2016.", Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed April 2016)
