<br />CDM <br /> <br />Section 6 <br />Conservation Measures and Programs <br /> <br />This section provides a collection of conservation measures and programs. A <br />preliminary screening identifies the conservation measures/programs that are most <br />conducive for CPN. These are evaluated in Section 7. An explanation of why certain <br />measures are not chosen is provided. <br /> <br />6.1 Identification of Conservation Measures and <br /> <br />Programs <br /> <br />Table 6-1 in Section 6.3 provides a list of conservation measures and programs that <br />were considered during the development of this Plan. This list consists of measures <br />and programs identified in the CWCB guidelines as well as additional measures that <br />were thought of during the development process. <br /> <br />6.2 Screening of Conservation Measures and Programs <br /> <br />A set of screening criteria were developed to eliminate certain conservation measures <br />and programs from further consideration. These criteria were developed by reviewing <br />the conservation goals and potential conservation measures and programs. <br />Preliminary criteria were developed based on reasons why certain measures/ <br />programs were not as effective in meeting the conservation goals as others. These <br />criteria were refined into the screening criteria listed below. <br /> <br />. Criteria 1: The measure/programs are not conducive for the District's water system <br />or community. <br /> <br />. Criteria 2: Water savings resulting from the conservation measure/program are <br />already met by other existing or more effective conservation measures/programs. <br /> <br />. Criteria 3: The measure/program would not provide water savings within the <br />District. <br /> <br />. Criteria 4: Within the context of the District's water system, the measure/program <br />is considered to be more of a water supply option than a conservation <br />program/ measure. These may be evaluated in the IWRP, if considered a viable <br />supply option. <br /> <br />. Criteria 5: The measure/program is a standard practice that has been implemented <br />since the water system came online and/ or is a practice that will continue to be an <br />integral component of water management. Although the measure/programs may <br />provide savings, there are not additional savings in reference to 2003 demand <br />patterns. The savings were incorporated in the 2003 demand projections. The <br />measure/program is not evaluated in the Plan, but is included in the final list of <br />measure/programs to be implemented. <br /> <br />6-1 <br /> <br />O:\Castle_Pines_North\Conservation Plan\Drafts Submitted For Review\Final Conservation Plan.doc <br />
