Vision Goals <br /> <br />Vision Goals constitute the second component of a statewide visioning process for Colorado's <br />water supply future. Vision Goals will be used to compare the perf ormance of water supply <br />strategies. <br />These Vision Goals are based on previous work by the IBCC, the CWCB Board, and other <br />processes including: l) responses to the IBCC Visioning Exercises, the Statewide Water Supply <br />Initiative (SWSI) Major Findingsss, the SWSI Objectivessss, CSU's recent analysis of water beliefs <br />and valuess?, University of Denver's Colorado's Water Future Panel, and the IBCC's Guiding <br />Principles (the CO 64 Principals)?s. <br />These goals may individually conflict. However, by evaluating all the goals together, more <br />sustainable water supply strategies can be achieved. <br />The IBCC discussed and generally agreed on the following draft Vision Goals: <br />1. Meet municipal and industrial (M&I) demands. <br />2. Meet agricultural demands. <br />3. Meet Colorado's environment and recreation demands. <br />4. Encourage cooperation between water supply planners and land use planners. <br />5. Encourage more cooperation among all Colorado water users. <br />6. Optimize existing and future water supplies by1: <br />a. Implementing conservation/efficiency best management practices <br />b. Minimizing non-beneficial consumptive use (evaporation, non-native phreatophytes, <br />etc.). <br />c. Maximizing successive uses of legally reusable water. <br />d. Maximizing use of existing and new in-basin supplies. <br />7. Promote cost-effectiveness by: <br />a. Allocating costs to all beneficiaries f airly. <br />b. Achieving benefits at the lowest cost. <br />c. Providing viable f financing mechanisms, including local, state, and federal f unding/ <br />financing. <br />d. Mitigating third-party economic impacts. <br />8. Minimize the net energy used to supply water, including both the energy used and/ or <br />generated with raw water delivery, and the energy used for treatment. <br />1 Basin Roundtables have also identified the use of groundwater, and development of unappropriated water as <br />components of optimizing water supplies. These could be categorized as a goals, but for the purposes of this <br />exercise will be directly dealt with in the evaluation of Strategies.
