The SWSI project team will confirm the <br />participation of Roundtable members to future meetings and recommend scheduling changes <br />where conflicts arise. <br /> <br />Overview of SWSI Goals, Objectives, and Process <br /> <br />Rick Brown presented the SWSI purpose, goals, and project scope. A copy of the slides that Rick <br />and Sue presented are located in the Basin Roundtable Meeting #1 slides file on the Colorado <br />Water Conservation Board website (www.cwcb.state.co.us - click on Statewide Water Supply <br />Initiative). Feedback from the roundtable participants on the presentation is summarized below. <br /> <br />Purpose and Goals Presentation <br /> <br />. It is difficult to fully address the objectives without first defining the available supply. <br />. It is important that the federal and environmental interests are represented at the roundtable. <br />. There are a number of issues that have been evaluated by local experts and SWSI should <br />utilize this expertise. <br /> <br />Water Management Objectives <br /> <br />Following the presentation on SWSI purpose, goals, and project scope, John Rehring defined <br />terms that will become the basis of the SWSI process and described how water supply objectives <br />and subobjectives will be created and used to evaluate water supply alternatives. For the <br />purposes of the SWSI project, the following terms and definitions will be used: <br /> <br />Objectives - The goals that define the essential purposes in broad, over arching terms. For the <br />purposes of SWSI, an objective will be measurable, non-redundant, concise, and <br />understandable. <br /> <br />Performance Measures - The indicators of how well the objectives are being met. <br /> <br />CDIVI <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />Rio Grande BRT Mtg #1 SummarLfinal.doc 11/14/2003 <br />
