North Platte Basin Roundtable Meeting Minutes, 11.27.2007 <br />Denise said that CHNP is usually asked to peer review others, and CNHI''s <br />methodologies have been previously reviewed. <br />Hal Hagen asked about continual monitoring of sites once they are surveyed. <br />Denise: the survey is really just a snapshot of what's going on at that time, they try to <br />continue to monitor when they have the funds. <br />Hal: can you inchide monitoring costs in any possible proposal? <br />It was also discussed that the non-consumptive group can also request a task order if they <br />want information gathered or surveys done in the county. <br />Barbara Vasquez suggested that the non-consumptive needs assessment committee have a <br />meeting to answer these questions. <br />Ann Timbermaml and Barbara Vasquez need to be added to the non-consumptive group <br />on the IBCC website. <br />PNesentution by Hca1 Simpson Negu~rling the Wulrlen Tnsk O~rle~: <br />Assessment of Town of Walden Raw Water Supply <br />CDM had 5 task order items to address: <br />Hal Simpson discussed the daily water demands of Walden, the town water rights (HiHo <br />Ditch, Old SC Ditch, Walden Reservoir), and town groundwater rights: Well No. 1 & No. <br />2. <br />Hal discussed efficiency and reliability problems with the town's water supply: <br />The diversion dam isn't very efficient, and deteriorated. <br />Physical reliability is a problem, cannot divert 1 cfs during low flow from the HiHo and <br />old sc ditches. South and middle wells are dependent on irrigation, and have lower yields <br />in dry years and winter months. Reservoir has no delivery infrastn~cture, and limited in <br />ability to exchange. <br />How to improve reliability? <br />-HiHo ditch rights <br />-reservoir <br />-rehabilitate abandoned diversion structure <br />-excavate storage pond near water plant <br />-trade Walden reservoir shares for Meadowcreek reservoir shares. The town traded shares <br />from Michigan at one point. <br />Hal S. discussed the different options for the Town, pros and cons. He suggested <br />speaking with a water attorney in some cases. <br />Next steps: CDM will put cost estimates to the info they provided here, and finalize the <br />report. They will provide a report to the roundtable with figures and cost estimates. <br />
