Two Rivers Enters into Agreement to Develop Additional Reservoir Storage on the Arkansas River
DENVER – January 31, 2013 -- Two Rivers Water & Farming Company (OTCQB: TURV) (www.2riverswater.com) today announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire an additional farm and permitted gravel pit on the Arkansas River just east of the river’s convergence with Fountain Creek. This acquisition was undertaken in order to create 30,000 acre-feet of reservoir storage adjacent to property acquired by Two Rivers in December 2012 for the purpose of creating an initial 10,000 acre-feet of reservoir storage.
John McKowen, CEO and Founder of Two Rivers, said, “This latest acquisition is a significant step in Two Rivers’ ongoing development of its properties on the Arkansas River. We expect to develop the reservoir storage in conjunction with existing local water providers to support farming operations on the Arkansas River undertaken by us and by others.”
