A total of approximately $43.8 million is projected as available <br />for Colorado Water Conservation Board operating expenses, non-reimbursable investments, <br />modifications to previous loan authorizations and new construction proj ect loans. <br />Discussion <br />Attached is a financial projection summarizing the FY2008-09 Construction Fund cash <br />available and projected expenses. Total revenue available for new projects and other expenses is <br />$43.8 million, projected expenses are $26.0 million, leaving a projected balance of $17.8 million. <br />This number includes loan and non-reimbursable investment projects presented at the November <br />Boar meeting. <br />Projected expenses for non-reimbursable investments are approximately $ 8.5 million. <br />The projection for money available for non-reimbursable investments is based on the difference <br />between the target and actual growth of the Construction Fund (Financial Policy # 13 attached). <br />The target growth rate of the Construction Fund establishes the basis for the calculation of this <br />year's available funds for non-reimbursable investments. <br />Water Supply Protection • Flood Protection • Stream ~ Lake Protection • Water Supply Planning & Finance <br />Water Conservation ~ Drought Planning ~ Intrastate Water Management & Development <br />
