Pollinator Program News

The Colorado Department of Natural Resources (CDNR) commissioned a comprehensive study on native pollinating insects, in which various state agencies, including the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), participated. This Colorado Native Pollinating Insects Health Study assessed current land management practices employed by state agencies to support and protect pollinators.

The study provides valuable recommendations and outlines best practices for developing education and outreach programs aimed at safeguarding Colorado's native pollinating insects. A summary of this important study, along with additional resources on pollinators, is available here.
