• An identification of non-flow related resource management options and strategies. • A set of BRT-directed implementation strategies for priority rivers and streams within their basins, including both flow and non-flow related resource management options and strategies. • A resource that can be used to help identify where and how Colorado can develop future water supplies while maintaining or enhancing environmental and/or recreational values. Examples of the GIS coverages and prioritized areas are shown in Figure 4 below. Integration The integration of consumptive, nonconsumptive, and supply availability needs will occur as follows: • Completion of nonconsumptive needs assessment will influence meeting in-basin and statewide needs • Completion of consumptive needs assessment will influence how we address nonconsumptive needs • Addressing consumptive and nonconsumptive needs will assist us in developing probability of risk analysis under the water supply availability study Figure 4 Examp~e of Environmenta~ and Recreational Covera~es for the Arkansas Basin Basin Roundtable Nonconsumptive Needs Assessment Progress A summary of each roundtable's progress in completing their nonconsumptive needs assessment is shown in the following table: Arkansas • Finalized their requests of additional GIS information • Established preliminary priorities for environmental and recreational needs that will be discussed by the roundtable during their April 2008 meeting Colorado • Finalized their requests of additional GIS information • Established preliminary priorities for environmental and recreational needs that will be discussed by the roundtable during their April 2008 meeting Gunnison • In the process of finalizing their requests of additional GIS information MetrolSouth Platte • In the process of finalizing their requests of additional GIS information • Started their prioritization process North Platte • In the process of finalizing their requests of additional GIS information Rio Grande • In the process of finalizing their requests of additional GIS information • Started their prioritization process Southwest • In the process of finalizing their requests of additional GIS information YampalWhitelGreen • In the process of finalizing their requests of additional GIS information 4 S ~~j,~ 4 ,~ 'y~' z .i- . ~~~.• r ~ ~ ~_ ' 1 ~: . - ~~ ~ ~ ~, { A ~. `~~:<, ~;i ii ~ ~~~;~~ ~~ ~~ „~ c~tii~.-~ ~.~;.=. ~ ~ r~r~~r~~~a. ,~~~~~~~:~~ -5-
