CHALLENGES TO IMPLEMENTING ENVIRONMENTAL FLOWS IN OKLAHOMA

Oklahoma is one of two Western states that has no formal Environmental Flow Program. Efforts have been ongoing to study environmental flows in Oklahoma. A scientific study was performed on a scenic river in Northeastern Oklahoma to develop flow standards using Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM). Legislative bills have been introduced in the 2019 session to implement a formal Environmental Flow Program for the state. The Nature Conservancy (TNC) has been involved in these efforts to develop environmental flows. Scientific, legal, social, and management challenges will be discussed related to environmental flows in Oklahoma. Oklahoma’s challenges will be compared to efforts in other states.
