TRT Meeting Notes <br />Are nonconsumptive needs really needs at all or simply wants? <br />Rick Bro~nm: They are needs, especially on t11e West Slope. <br />If conservation is site-specific, is it going toward the Gap? <br />Rick Brown: Have not built a conservation strategy fllat can move a block of water. <br />hz SWSI, we had to assume that IPPs would be in place. Are these IPPs movuzg forward? <br />Rick Brown: Generally speak>11g, no. Projects have not made it through the NEPA process. <br />Can you give an estimate of how much t11e state has spent on <br />Endangered Species? <br />Rick Brown: $9 million Elkhead; $314 million Sout11 Platte as some examples. <br />Frank Yeager: I want to point out Rueter Hess is not done with the enlargement, is not <br />approved, and do not have water to put in it. I am looking to buy and dry, the Roundtables <br />need to start talking for real. <br />John Hendrick: Have some discussion about interruptible supply and firm yield. W11y is there <br />a dilemma on >1lterruptible supply? We need to be looking at consumptive use. <br />Pick Brown: Agree. <br />Harold Miskel: Tomorrow will receive a presentation on SWSI 2 . I do not see any way the <br />state cannot move forward on studying consumptive and nonconsumptive uses. We also need <br />to look at the water supply development concepts, flley need muc11 more work. Cannot turn <br />our backs on solutions. There are 3 roundtables need to use the water conservation board to <br />move forward. <br />Mike Sllimmen: How do we address climate change? We know the temperature piece. So we <br />need more storage. Is there any work >11 SWSI that can move this forward? <br />Rick Brown: CWCB Colorado Supply Availability Study will look at this. <br />Agriculture to Urban Partnerships <br />Peter Binney: Presented Aurora's water system <br />Dan Henrichs: Presented shareholders view of Highline Lease <br />~~ <br />
