<br />0015Gl <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />CAPACITY OF THE COLORADO RIVER TIJUANA II AQUEDUCT <br /> <br />According to the above table, in the year 2025 the Coastal Zone will require an average <br /> <br /> <br />annual usage of 7,690 lIs, in addition to its local sources. <br /> <br />This usage would be integrated into the one currently flowing through the Rio Colorado <br />Aqueduct, plus the complementary supply carried through a new existing p~rallel <br />Aqueduct we will refer to as Rio Colorado - Tijuana Aqueduct II. <br /> <br />The estimated current capacity of the aqueduct is 3,6?0 lIs, which means that the new <br />. aqueductshouJd have the capacity for an annual average use of: <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />. 7,690 - 3,650 = 4,040 lIs <br /> <br />. . <br />. . <br />If we consider that the nominal capacity of the current Aqueduct is of 4,000 lis, and that <br /> <br />we are conducting studies and construction to increase the real capacity of the <br />Aqueduct to 4,000 lis, hi the short term, we can conclude thatthe new Aqueduct could <br />have equal project capacity tothe current one: We would be benefiting from the <br />knowledge derived from the experience of operating the current Aqueduct and thus . <br />. guarantee the cost of the project. <br /> <br />t <br /> <br />This way we would reach atotalcapacity of 8,000 lis of instant usage in both <br />Aqueducts. This will guaranteethe annual average use of 7,697 lis required by the <br />zone in theyear 2025. <br /> <br />15 <br />
