Upper Co(orado River Endan~ered Fish <br />Recovery Pro~ram - A(ternative Analysis <br />Applicant: Colorado River Water Conservation <br />District <br />Amount Requested: $200,000 (Statewide Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: The purpose of this study <br />is to identify a long-term source of 10,825 acre- <br />feet of water to help meet flow recommendations <br />under the Endangered Fish Recovery Program for <br />the "15-Mile Reach," which extends from the <br />confluence of the Gunnison River upstream <br />15 miles to the Grand Valley Irrigation Company <br />Diversion Dam near Palisade, Colorado. <br />Grand County Stream Mana~ement P(an (SMP) <br />Applicant: Board of County Commissioner, Grand <br />County <br />Amount Requested: $30,000 (Basin Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: The purpose of this study <br />is to develop a scientifically defensible <br />methodology for a non-consumptive water needs <br />stream management plan for Grand County in <br />order to determine the critical stream reaches, <br />flow times, and key flow needs. The SMP will also <br />develop a framework to identify problematic <br />stream reaches and recommend approaches to <br />determine flow solutions to address instream flow <br />and other aquatic habitat issues to protect <br />important environmental and recreational values, <br />while continuing to allow for development of water <br />needed for human consumption on both the West <br />Slope and the Front Range of Colorado. <br />Roarin~ Fork Wafershed Pfan <br />Applicant: Ruedi Water and Power Authority <br />Amount Requested: $40,000 (Basin Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: The purpose of this study <br />is to assess the entire Roaring Fork watershed and <br />develop a comprehensive plan to determine the <br />overall demand for consumptive and non- <br />consumptive water uses, to provide a mapping of <br />local water resources, and to determine the <br />connections between local land use decisions and <br />local water resources. <br />Dolores/San Juan/San Miguel Basin <br />Dry Gufcn AKA San Juan Reservoir <br />Applicant: San Juan Water Conservancy District <br />Amount Requested: $1,000,000 (Statewide <br />Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: The purpose of this <br />project is to assist in the land acquisition of the <br />reservoir site for the Dry Gulch Reservoir. <br />Goodman Point Water Associafion <br />Environmenfa( Report-Pre(iminary <br />En~ineerin~ Report <br />Applicant: Goodman Point Water Association <br />Amount Requested: $7,700 (Basin Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: The purpose of this study <br />is to assist the Goodman Point Water Association in <br />completing an Environmental Report and <br />Preliminary Engineering Report. These reports will <br />describe and negate impacts to environmental and <br />cultural resources and to perform general scoping <br />of project engineering requirement and costs. <br />These reports are required by the U.S. Department <br />of Agriculture-Rural Development in order to <br />qualify for grant/loan funding and will provide a <br />preliminary "blueprint" of the proposed pipeline <br />project to extend two domestic pipelines by <br />Montezuma Water Company into the Goodman <br />Point area. <br />Metro Basin <br />Chatfie(d Reservoir Rea((ocation <br />Environmenta( Impact Statement and <br />Feasibi(ity Report <br />Applicant: The Greenway Foundation <br />Amount Requested: $103,000 (Basin Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: The purpose of this grant <br />is to assist in finalizing the Chatfield Reservoir <br />Reallocation Environmental Impact Statement and <br />Feasibility Report. The goal of the study is to <br />determine the feasibility of reallocating up to <br />20,600 acre-feet of storage water from the <br />Chatfield Reservoir to other authorized purposes <br />including M~tl water supply, agriculture, and <br />recreation and fishery habitat protection and <br />enhancement. <br />Rio Grande Basin <br />Terrace Reservoir Hydro~oqic Mode(in~, Site <br />Survey, and Mappin~ <br />Applicant: Alamosa Riverkeepers <br />Amount Requested: $64,500 (Basin Account) <br />Water Activity Purpose: This study is a critical <br />component of the Alamosa River Instream Flow <br />Project. The Alamosa River Instream Flow Project <br />will purchase one or more senior irrigation water <br />rights and place them into storage-and-release <br />plans at Terrace Reservoir. The water rights will be <br />used to restore flows and improve the natural <br />environment in the Alamosa River channel. <br />^~~~~f7 ~~ <br />ti` - ~'~). <br />~ ~ <br />~ . -L <br />G ~~ $ ~ <br />~, ~ ~ ~ <br />~ .- } <br />+ ~ ~", b <br />cc~r~c~~~c~ <br />~~ <br />~>F~~~ni~~~,vr N~r c~~ <br />NATURAL <br />]~.ES~UIZC.ES <br />
