Boyle reviewed the Program Document Water Plan as well as additional documentation,
including the Water Conservation/Supply Reconnaissance Study (Boyle, 1999) and the FEIS
(USDOI 2006).
In addition to a review of the literature, meetings, or interviews, were held with
representatives of several of the Program participants to discuss the intent of the WMS and to
provide information on key aspects of the project. These Program representatives shared a
wealth of knowledge on the Platte River system, the importance of the routing studies and
how identified projects would work today and in the future. A total of 9 meetings were held
with 8 agencies during the initial stages of the study. Table 2-1 entitled, "Interview
Participants" presents a summary of these contributars and the highlighted topics of
