<br />r <br /> <br />Water Planning Relationship: The iss e of radar missing precipitation amounts in the mountains <br />below the scanning levels is unique to mbuntainous regions. Flash flood warnings and streamflow <br />forecasts would improve for mountain coJmlUnities and streams based on this project. <br /> <br />Recommendation: Staff gives a low Jcommendation for funding of this project because of other <br />agency priorities and the perception that Ithis is a NOAA and/or NWS responsibilitx. This project <br />has been shared with others and has interest of the Grand Junction Drainage District, Colorado River <br />WeD, and possibly Gunnison Basin Watkr Users. Should some funding become available, pat1ners <br />in the Colorado and Gunnison basins cohld be developed and share in the funding of this project <br />request as they would benefit.

We will Jot know exactly how much funding will be available . <br />until the Executive Branch and the GeJeral Assembly act on proposals to divert a portion of <br />Severance Tax to the General Fund, plabe a cap on contribution into the Operational Account, <br />or keep agency funding static for other ~udgetary reasons. <br />I <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />20 <br />
