Arkansas Basin Roundtable Technical Meeting #1 <br />Meeting Summary <br />Following the discussion on objectives and subobjectives, the participants broke for dinner, and <br />then reconvened to discuss demand methodology, basin roundtable meeting logistics, and <br />receive public comments. <br />Demand Methodology <br />Sue Morea led the presentation regarding the SWSI approach to determining basin-specific <br />water demands. The slides related to this presentation are also on the CWCB website. In <br />general, the demand methodology will be consistent between all Colorado River basins, and <br />will be forecasted to 2030. The following summarizes the approach for each water demand <br />category: <br />^ Municipal & Industrial - The SWSI will use a"per capita" by county approach using the <br />State Demographer data, and cross-checked with the CWCB Drought Survey water use <br />results and 2000 water use data supplied by water providers. Industrial uses not on <br />municipal water supplies will also be included. <br />^ Agricultural - The SWSI will multiply irrigated crop acreage by crop water requirements, <br />increase irrigation demand by percent conveyance loss, multiply number of livestock by <br />livestock requirement, and assume irrigated acreage/livestock levels remain constant over <br />time unless data indicates otherwise. <br />^ Environmental - The SWSI will use decreed in-stream flow requirements by basin, and <br />assume current minimum requirements in future years. <br />The collected demand data will become the base demand. The base demand will then be <br />bracketed by high and low demand scenarios. <br />The following comments regarding the demand methodology were received: <br />^ It was suggested that the SWSI project needs to be careful when using data from the State <br />Demographers office because counties may "pad° their municipal and industrial demands. <br />^ Consider "voluntary annual flow program" as part of baseline flows. This voluntary flow <br />program is unique to the Arkansas Basin. <br />Preparation for Basin Roundtable Meeting #2 <br />^ Next meeting January 7, 2004 from 2- 8 p.m. in Pueblo at SECWCD. <br />Public Comments <br />^ The drought intensity and duration has devastated Southeastern Colorada Many residents, <br />because they rely on selling products from agriculture, have gone a long time without a <br />paycheck. Key points that were discussed include: <br />- SWSI should consider some "out-of-the box° thinking when it comes to trans-basin <br />agreements. <br />~~ <br />Copy ofArkansas BRT Mtg #1 Summary_fnal.doc 11/14/2003 <br />
