To purchase 90 acre/foot units at <br />an estimated $15,000 per unit would cost (90)($15,000), or $1,350,000. <br /> <br />The above costs cover only the conveyance of raw water to the City. To this <br />must be added the treatnient charge imposed by the City, plus hauling costs, <br />and the sum of these, as the Planning Document indicates, is estimated at ap- <br />. . proximately $33 per 1000 gallons. . <br /> <br />While the District has evaluated the various capital projects as previously <br />described, it con~ues to acknowledge the possibility of hauling as an 'option. <br /> <br />B) DESIGN CRITERIA <br />....*****.***.****** <br />. . . . ) . <br /> <br />. The basic premise of the design for the projects being evaluated is" 1) to pro- <br />vide sufficient raw water storage to serve the needs of the community of Pine- <br />wood Springs when the Little Thompson River runs dry from severe drought <br />conditions; and 2) to upgrade the capacity of the water treatment plant, . and <br />related facilities, to serve the anticipated build-out of the community of 350 <br />EQR (Equivalent Residential Units), or the same as 350 EDU (Equivalent <br />Dwelling Units). <br /> <br />1) Reservoirs <br /> <br />a) Capaci~ <br /> <br />Storage rights issues cUrrently being assessed will, for the most part, deter- <br />mine the capacity of the reservoir, but a variety of such capacities has been <br />explored with the District's position being to get as much as possible atthe <br />lowest cost pet acre/foot of storage.As indicated in Section m of the Planning <br />Document, a capacity of 20 acre/feet was used as a starting point <br /> <br />b) Dam Design <br /> <br />All of the dams considered in the Alternates evaluated in the Planning Docu- <br />ment will be more . than. 10' in height, and will therefore be considered as . <br />jurisdictional dams requiring that their ,design be in accordance with, and <br />subject to. review bY~. the Colorado State Engineer's office, particularly with <br />regard to hazard class determination, outlet works, and emergency spillways. <br /> <br />Because all of the reservoirs are "off-line" from the River, on swales tributary <br />to the River, the areas of contributing run-off basins will be relatively small.. <br /> <br />16 <br />
