This episode is a part of a mini-series that we developed in partnership with 3 students from NAU focused on Snowbowl Ski Resort and the agencies that are supposed to hold them accountable.

EDIT: Snowbowl Ski Resort, at the time it began using reclaimed sewage water for artificial snow, was the only resort in the world to use reclaimed water to make 100% of their artificial snow. However, since that time, it is unclear if there are other resorts that also use reclaimed waste water for 100% of their artificial snow. re: "Snowbowl is the only resort in world to use reclaimed waste water for 100% of their artificial snow"
