Citizens for Dixie's Future, among other environmental groups, are actively fighting the project by hosting rallies and letter-writing campaigns against the pipeline, saying it is too expensive and would fuel growth to a region that should instead learn to conserve its water resources.
Most of the water from the project would be allocated to Washington County, up to 70,000 acre-feet, while about 10,000 acre-feet would be delivered to Kane County and 20,000 acre-feet to Iron County.
