By the late 1980s however, the CUP was uncompleted and way over budget, and attitudes in Congress had changed. No longer was it in the mood to approve extensive water development projects as they had in earlier years. environmental Furthermore, concerns had gained a much stronger voice in Washington. The result was the Central Utah Project Completion Act of 1992, which made a number of important changes to the CUP. One of the most important was the imposition of a local cost share. This requires Utah taxpay-ers to pay 35 percent of the remaining cost of the project. "This requirement is forcing water officials to scramble to come up with ways of meeting the obligation," the report states. The options most looked at for meeting the obligation are: raising . the property tax of the Central Utah Water Conservancy District, bonding, borrowing from the Board of Water Resources and tapping into the state sales tax made possible by a bill passed in the last legislative session. However, the report states, "Many economists would argue that the most efficient way of paying for the water would be through increasing water rates so that the true costs of the water is more closely reflected in its price." According to the Foundation report, regardless of which option or combination of options is used, water rates in Utah are going to ' go higher. The Utah Foundation concludes that, "Regardless of the high cost, it does seem clear that because of the CUP, water will not pose a constraint to growth along the Wasatch Front for the foreseeable future.' "But it is also probable that less expensive solutions to Utahs water needs would have been possible. Of course, the major problem with these other solutions was that the federal government was unwilling to pay for them and that they .would not have put to beneficial use Utahs share of the Colorado River."
