<br />Stratus Consulting <br /> <br />Private Nonprofit Water Systems in Colorado <br /> <br />PNPWSs collectively ranked treated water storage as the highest category of need, with a rating <br />of 3.33. Distribution system improvements were the second highest collective need, with a <br />ranking of3.17. Treatment and supply needs were ranked tied for lowest, with a rating of 2.42. <br />Table A.3 in the appendix shows the full ratings. <br /> <br />Results from small numbers of respondents should be interpreted with caution because the <br />statistical level of confidence that the sample represents the true population of this category of <br />system is weak for small numbers. Confidence in the results shown is backed, however, by the <br />fact that it mirrors the general finding from the EPA Needs Survey. In both cases, distribution <br />system upgrade and replacement needs ranked the highest. In addition, treated water storage and <br />treatment needs ranked higher than water supply needs in both surveys. <br /> <br />Page 2-10 <br />SCll199 <br /> <br />
