Water Conservation Planning Services <br />Company Overview <br />Hydrosphere Resource Consultants provides a wide range of technical services that support the <br />planning and management of natural resources. These services include policy analysis, engineering <br />and economic evaluation, and the development of information systems to support decision-making. <br />Our services also include environmental quality and assessment, permitting, and software and <br />database development. We are a small firm with 27 employees, headquartered in Boulder, Colorado <br />with a second office located in Socorro, New Mexico. <br />Water Conservation <br />Hydrosphere is committed to helping our clients ensure the long-term viability of their water supplies <br />and to encourage the efficient use of our region's resources. We understand the role water <br />conservation can play in helping water providers manage supply and demand and the importance of <br />identifying conservation measures that are appropriate and that meet targeted goals. Hydrosphere has <br />helped clients evaluate and implement a variety of successful conservation measures. Our staff has <br />decades of experience evaluating water supply systems, including considering underlying demographic, <br />land use and cultural variables. We have developed effective demand reduction programs tailored to <br />individual provider's water use patterns and savings potential from education, incentive and retrofit <br />programs; rate structures; and voluntary and mandatory restriction programs, among others. We are <br />also experienced with the practical aspects of implementing such programs. <br />We are Familiar with the CWCB's Preferred Plan Format <br />Hydrosphere has experience writing water conservation plans according to the CWCB's preferred <br />format. A member of our project team recently attended two water conservation planning workshops <br />sponsored by the CWCB. We are currently working on a water conservation plan for the City of <br />Northglenn which follows the CWCB Guidance Document. We have developed a water conservation <br />plan document template (in MSWord) which includes the CWCB worksheets (in MSExcel), formatted <br />specifically for use in Colorado water conservation planning. <br />Relevant Project Experience <br />Several project descriptions that exemplify Hydrosphere's capabilities for water conservation planning <br />are included below. <br />Northglenn Water Conservation Plan <br />Client Contact: Shelley Stanley (2005) and Wayne East (2006) <br />email: SStanley~g7northglenn.org or WEast(C~northglenn.org <br />phone: 303-450-8905 (Stanley) or 303-450-8782 (East) <br />Hydrosphere developed a water conservation plan for the City of Northglenn which complies with <br />Colorado House Bills 91-1154 and 04-1365.
