Fulp is actively involved in Colorado River operations and management issues, working closely with other federal and state agencies and a broad range of stakeholders on issues related to management and use of the river. Prior to his appointment as Acting Regional Director, he led the successful Basin-wide effort to develop additional operational guidelines for Lake Powell and Lake Mead to address the impacts of long-term drought in the Basin.
