Colorado mountain town runs into water restrictions as flows drop to lowest levels in years
Frisco is urging residents and visitors to conserve water as the North Ten Mile Creek, a primary source for the town's water supply, experiences significantly low flows. Stage Two water restrictions are now in effect, demanding changes in water usage within the limits of the Colorado mountain town. One of the most immediate changes visitors might notice is at local restaurants. Unless specifically requested, water will no longer be automatically served. "We're asking the folks in town to just lower their demand a little bit so that we cannot stress other parts of our system that are not currently affected right now," explained Ryan Thompson, the Water Superintendent for Frisco. The last time restrictions were put in by the town was back in 2012. Here's what you need to know to follow the new mandatory rules on water in the town of Frisco: • Outdoor Irrigation: Restrictions on watering lawns and gardens are in place. Specific watering schedules, outlined in a letter to water customers, are being enforced to ensure equitable water use. • Restaurant Service: Water will be served only upon request at all food service establishments. • Conservation Urged: Residents and businesses are asked to be mindful of their water consumption in all aspects of daily life, like watering asphalt, gardens, etc. Frisco relies on a combination of water sources, including North Ten Mile Creek and groundwater wells. "We pull water from the North Ten Mile Creek and the North Ten Mile Creek has a state assigned minimum in-stream flow that we've agreed to with the Colorado Water Conservation Board," Thompson said. The reasons behind the dwindling creek levels are attributed to the lack of typical monsoon rains this summer, a phenomenon also linked to the widespread wildfires in the West. "Beautiful weather that we're having," Thompson said, laughing. "We're just receiving a lot less rainfall this summer so without that moisture coming out of the clouds, the water sources that provide for us in the forest, they're just starting to dry up a little bit." "Hopefully we can squeeze the moisture out of the clouds." In the meantime, the town is emphasizing voluntary compliance with the water restrictions. However, repeated violations could lead to consequences. "Potentially, they could have a citation," Thompson said. While Stage Two restrictions are currently in place, Frisco is prepared to implement even stricter measures (Stage Three) if the dry conditions persist. Residents and visitors in Frisco are encouraged to review the full details of the Stage Two water restrictions provided in the official notice from the town: Phase Two Water Restriction Letter to Water Customers Aug. 15, 2025.

Swimlane secures USD $45m funding to drive AI automation growth
Swimlane has secured USD $45 million in growth funding led by Energy Impact Partners and Activate Capital, with participation from Trinity Capital. The company stated that the new investment will be used to accelerate product innovation and grow its global channel ecosystem, as Swimlane moves closer to achieving profitability in the third quarter of 2025. The firm attributes its positive outlook to sustained revenue growth, improved operating efficiency, and disciplined cost management. Financial progress Since its last funding round, Swimlane has reported growth of over 110%, expanding its client base to include more than 50 Global 1000 companies, 26 U.S. federal agencies, and five of the world's largest systems integrators. Currently, 75% of its business is conducted through channel partners, reflecting increasing engagement with managed security service providers (MSSPs), value-added distributors and resellers, and global integrators. Chief Executive Officer James Brear commented, "Swimlane is achieving what no other stand-alone AI automation security company can, providing extensible, enterprise-grade AI automation with a business model that can turn a profit. We have redefined what's possible in security operations by combining agentic AI with unmatched experience in highly scalable automation use cases that help customers solve real problems both in and outside the SOC." Focus on agentic AI Swimlane has emphasised its commitment to advancing agentic AI as part of its security operations strategy. The company's AI tool, Hero, is described as the first private, agentic AI security operations companion fully integrated into the Swimlane Turbine platform. According to the company, Swimlane's solution is capable of automating more than 25 million daily actions per customer, which it states is 17 times faster than other SOAR or security hyperautomation products. Ryan Thompson, Managing Director, Tech Lending at Trinity Capital, said: "Swimlane's agentic AI platform is redefining security automation at a time when organizations need smarter, more scalable solutions. We're proud to support the Swimlane team as they help shape the future of cybersecurity." David Lincoln, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Activate Capital, said: "Cybersecurity is drowning in complexity with too much data, too many tools and not enough integration. Swimlane cuts through the chaos with an AI automation platform that brings control to every corner of the security organization, transforming fragmentation into high-ROI outcomes. That's exactly the kind of shift the market is hungry for." Sameer Reddy, Managing Partner at Energy Impact Partners, added: "Swimlane stands out by delivering what the market desperately needs: scalable, intelligent automation that goes beyond the hype and actually works. The company's unique approach to agentic AI and hyperautomation addresses a massive gap in modern security operations and is defining the future of how organizations will protect themselves." Industry validation The company outlined a series of recent milestones that it says reinforce its market position. Among these, Swimlane is one of the first 30 companies globally to be issued the ISO42001 certification for AI. It was also ranked No. 45 on Inc.'s fifth annual Rocky Mountain list of fastest-growing private companies and named a Top 5 AI Automation for SecOps vendor by TAG Cyber. Additional recognitions include Most Valuable Pioneer in the 2025 QKS AI Maturity Matrix, and being named both a leader for technology excellence and the "Ace Performer" in the 2025 QKS Group SPARK Matrix for Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR). Swimlane reports that it plans to use part of the new funding to further its work in responsible AI innovation and expand the use of automation in security, compliance, and IT/OT operations among its enterprise and MSSP customers.
