<br />Meetin2: Water Mana2:ement Goals and Obiectives and Identified Water Needs <br /> <br />1. The water activity helps complete a needs assessment, including consumptive and/or non- <br />consumptive needs, that was not fully funded from other sources. <br /> <br />This project helps toward the most basic of water needs, bringing domestic <br />water to the homes in a 15 square mile area. Further, it increases the structural and <br />wildt1re protection of the area. <br /> <br />J. The water activity meets one or more of the water management objectives <br />identified in the Statewide Water Supply Initiative, helps implement project <br />and processes identified as helping meet Colorado's future water needs, and/or <br />addresses the gap areas between available water supply and future need as <br />identified in the Statewide Water Supply Initiative or a roundtable's basin-wide <br />water needs assessment done in accordance with the Colorado Water for the <br />21 st Century Act. <br /> <br />The project meets the following of the water management objectives: <br />o Meeting municipal demand by providing domestic water to GPW A. <br />o Optimizing existing water supplies by making the existing supply available for <br />additional households. <br />o Promotes cost effectiveness by adding additional domestic users onto an existing <br />system/water supply. <br />o Provides for operational flexibility by using existing facilities (water supply, <br />treatment plant, operational and management staff of an existing domestic water <br />supplier). <br />o Is an environmental enhancement as the project eliminates the health hazards <br />(contamination) associated with hauling water. <br />o This project conforms to all applicable laws, regulations, and water rights. <br /> <br />k. The water activity promotes water conservation and efficiency <br /> <br />The project accomplishes this by not duplicating existing water supply facilities <br />(water rights, treatment plants, operational and management staff). <br />Also, by not duplicating a facility, it will avoid the 15% water loss typical of discrete <br />water operating facilities. <br /> <br />1. Applicant has an existing water conservation plan. <br />Not applicable to this project as the applicant (GPW A) consists of only <br />"end users," Le. household consumption of domestic water. <br /> <br />m. The water activity will make new water available for use. N/A to this project <br /> <br />n. The water activity involves reoperation, enlargement, or rehabilitation of existing <br />facilities. <br /> <br />Goodman Point Water Association Application - Evaluation Criteria Attachment 2 <br /> <br />Page 3 <br />
