?? Lake Pueblo State Park holds a lease with the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) to manage the facilities and recreation on the park property. The dam, the water operations, water levels, etc are managed by the BOR and other state/water organizations to determine water levels, storage shares, etc. The dam was built to store water for irrigation and municipalities; it is also for flood control. The recreation aspect is an awesome by-product of the dam and Lake Pueblo is proud to manage that aspect. Having said that, CPW and Lake Pueblo don't have any control over water levels and how they impact the access to recreation. We appreciate that sometimes we have to step back and let the dam and the reservoir do what it is intended to do?even when it means limiting our recreational access.
