<br />Projects cannot access these supplies on a year-round basis. Conveyance of <br />these supplies is in some cases made by open canals which operate only from <br />April 1 through October 31 of each year. This delivery constraint is <br />further compounded during dry years when the demands for C-8T water supplies <br />exceed the present capacity of the canal conveyance system. Additional <br />conveyance facilities to alleviate this constraint could significantly <br />benefit some of the retail water providers. Additional conveyance <br />facilities could also provide the means for other eligible municipal water <br />providers to utilize C-8T and Windy Gap water supplies rather than <br />independently develop new supplies. <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />. <br />I <br /> <br />-2- <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />j <br /> <br />The feasibility of increasing the efficiency of municipal and industrial <br />utilization of C-8T and Windy Gap supplies is dependent on the following <br />sets of issues: (1) demand and supply constraints; (2) conveyance system <br />constraints; (3) water treatment plant constraints; and (4) institutional <br />(legal and political) constraints. <br /> <br />Sections 1 and 2 of this report describe the evaluations performed to help <br />address the first set of issues. Section 1 describes projections of water <br />demands through the planning period (the present through the year 2020) for <br />individual municipal and industrial retail water providers throughout the <br />study area. Section 2 contrasts projected water demands against available <br />water supplies for individual water providers and presents upper bounds for <br />the efficiencies that can be gained through regionally integrating supplies. <br /> <br />Section 3 focuses on the second set of issues and presents alternatives for <br />substantially expanding raw water conveyance capabilities. The third set of <br />issues are addressed in Section 4 which contains alternative water treatment <br />options that may significantly reduce future water treatment costs. The <br />last section of this report, Section 5, describes the evaluations performed <br />to assess the viability of alternative institutional frameworks for <br />implementing expanded regional cooperation to develop, convey, and <br />potentially treat future municipal and industrial water supplies. <br />
