<br />North Platte Basin Roundtable Meeting 7-28-06 <br /> <br />North Platte Basin Roundtable Comments and Recommendations - Page 2 <br /> <br />. Recommends allocations be made during two u\1lding cycles per year. <br /> <br />. In Part 3, Prioritization Process by the CWCB for Allocation of Funds, Criteria A <br />states "The water activity meets one or more of the water management objectives <br />identified in the Statewide Water Supply Initiative." We note redundancy in <br />Criteria D and Criteria E which are already covered in Criteria A. We don't feel <br />that the legislation intends to provide u\1lding to preserve open space. except that <br />open space provided by agricultural activities, i.e. ag open space. <br /> <br />. Recommends eliminating Criteria F because it is better stated in Criteria I. This <br />may give a basin with a large number of entities within the basin an unfair <br />advantage. <br /> <br />. Recommends eliminating Criteria K, L, and R.. Matching u\1lds may only be <br />available from those eligible entities that have better access to financial <br />resources. In-kind match should also be considered. Some projects may utilize <br />appropriated waters and small entities may not have any type of conservation <br />plan in place because they may not feel that it is necessary or required. <br /> <br />. In Criteria Q, use language, "water activity should complement, but not duplicate <br />other CWCB programs." <br /> <br />3 <br />
