Water Supply Reserve Account – Grant Appli cation Form <br />Form Revised July 2006 <br />_______________________________________ <br /> <br /> <br />Water Availability and Sustainability – this information is needed to assess the viability and effectiveness <br />7. <br />of the water project or activity. Please provide a description of each water supply source to be utilized for <br /> <br />the w ater activity. Each source should be described in terms of location, yield, extent of development, <br /> <br />and water right status (the analysis should take into consideration a reasonable range of hydrologic <br />variation). <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />This is a repair/upgrade of existing structures and the <br /> <br />last step to fully implement the goals of the pipeline <br /> <br />project. There are no Water Availability and <br />Sustainability issues externally – the reservoir and <br /> <br />water usage levels have been established for 60 plus <br /> <br />years. No water rights issues exist and no changes in <br />water rights are involved. <br /> <br />However, there ARE Availability and Sustainability issues <br /> <br />“internally” – that is regarding the operation of the <br />dam. For one, while we don’t have hard numbers, it is <br /> <br />(continued) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />8. <br />If you have not specifically and fully addressed the Prioritization Criteria found in Part 3 of the Criteria <br /> <br />and Guidance Document please provide additional detail here. Attach additional sheet(s) if needed. <br /> <br /> <br />This is a one - time addition to an existing pr oject that can <br /> <br />be implemented in a ma tt er of weeks (probably right after <br /> <br />the ’07 irrigation season), using standard engineering / <br />construction. We will be using the expertise of an <br /> <br />engineering firm that has been instrumental in other <br />installations in the Mancos Valley and elsewhere. <br /> <br />Members funded the 1970’s rebuild (with loan help) and the <br /> <br />current project was partially grant funded (2/3 grant <br /> <br />funded (NRCS) for the current project) with the balance <br />(See attached – continued) . <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />
