<br />CDM <br /> <br />Section 6 <br />Conservation Measures and Programs <br /> <br />This section provides a description of potential conservation measures and programs <br />considered for potential implementation in Erie. A preliminary screening process was <br />applied to eliminate conservation measures/programs that not meet Erie's <br />conservation goals. The remaining conservation measures/programs are further <br />evaluated in Section 7. <br /> <br />6.1 Identification of Conservation Measures and <br /> <br />Programs <br /> <br />Conservation measures and programs that were considered during the development <br />of this Plan include measures and programs identified in CWCB's Water <br />Conservation Plan Development Guidance Document. The measures and programs <br />are listed and screened in Section 6.3. <br /> <br />6.2 Criteria U sed in Screening Conservation Measures <br /> <br />and Programs <br /> <br />A set of screening criteria was developed to eliminate certain conservation measures <br />and programs from further consideration. These criteria were developed by assessing <br />the effectiveness and applicability to Erie of each of the measures/ programs in <br />meeting the conservation goals specified in Section 5. The screening criteria include: <br /> <br />. Criterion 1: The measure/program is not applicable to Erie's water supply system <br />or community. <br /> <br />. Criterion 2: The measure/program is being evaluated or implemented by Erie <br />separately from this Plan. <br /> <br />. Criterion 3: The measure/program would provide negligible water savings for <br />Erie. <br /> <br />. Criterion 4: The measure/program is a supply option not applicable to reducing <br />Erie's water use. <br /> <br />. Criterion 5: Erie prefers to focus on other measures/programs that more directly or <br />efficiently address its conservation goals. <br /> <br />6.3 Screening Conservation Measures and Programs <br /> <br />Table 6-1 lists each of the conservation measures and programs considered for <br />implementation, and identifies whether a measure/program was eliminated or <br />retained. If a measure/program was eliminated, the comments column identifies the <br />rationale for elimination based on the screening criteria described in Section 6.2. <br /> <br />DRAFT <br /> <br />6-1 <br /> <br />\\DENSVR1\PROJECTS\9228 - ERIE\CONSERVATION PLAN\REPORT\DRAFT PRIOR TO PUBLIC REVIEW\CONNIE FORMATTED\SECTION 6.DOC <br />
