This would be <br />useful for a lot of cities education. Can bring in a larger group to participate in this project. <br /> <br />Mark Pfifer: SWSI is making some of this available. There will be GIS layers so you can click <br />on a particular subject area and the state map lights up. For example, you could show every <br />location where salt levels exceed a certain ppm. SWSI is talking about making this map. The <br />information does exist. <br /> <br />Alan Martellero: This data exists. CWCB has in-stream flow information. All this information <br />will be there soon. <br /> <br />Ken Neubecker: We want to get SB 179 grant money to bring this all together. We need to <br />know areas impacted by low flow, high temperature, mining impacts, salt, value to local <br />economies for recreation, etc. The U.S. Weather Bureau has information fi'om all over the state <br />on high, low and average temperatures. <br /> <br />Louis Meyer: Ask the public to help put this data together to get their buy-in to the project. <br />Combine what we have. Local groups could do this by watershed. <br /> <br />David Graf: SWSI keeps getting bogged down on deciding what is important. On a statewide <br />level, we don't have a clue about this. Someone must manage this data, especially as it comes in <br />fi'om local sources. <br /> <br />Dave Merritt: Don Meyer, my GIS data scavenger is a great resource. The problem is that the <br />more you put into the overlay, computer requirements increase and the harder it is to manage. <br /> <br />Quest of CWCB Representative: Is this a good use of 179 funds? <br /> <br />John Redifer: I'm not sure. Had hoped to see the money used for projects. CWCB gave <br />$50,000 for a study to map tamarisk growth in Colorado rivers. <br /> <br />Eric Wi1kinsen: Enhance the DSS systems already available. We should work with CWCB to <br />identify the overlays that are needed. H.B. 1400 made $1-2 million available. Can this be used? <br />I think it can. The money must be tied to a continuing resource so it's constantly updated. <br /> <br />Chuck Ogi1by: Ifwe pull 150,000 acre-feet out of the Colorado, we find that the minimum <br />stream flow will show that the Colorado River will primarily consist of treatment plant emissions <br />and street run-off. We know what will happen. The law today says we can divert every drop out <br />of the river, if senior to a minimum stream flow. <br /> <br />The second home buyers are moving here because of the amenities.
