Man and finish dates are necessary to determine when impacts occur in the two scenarios. The "Start" date is the date of commencement of construction on the project; at that time additional economic activity occurs in the construction sector. The "Finish" date is when water deliveries actually begin; this would represent additional activity in the agriculture, power, and M&I sectors. The dates for ALP, NIIP, and San Juan Gallup are probably optimistic. This will have the effect of overstating the impacts of fish protection measures. San Juan-Chama The Jicarilla Apache Water Rights Settlement Act (106 Stat 2237) gives the tribe 25,500 AF/yr consumptive use from the Navajo River and 6,500 AF/yr consumptive use of the San Juan- Chama Project water, which it intends to lease to users outside of the study area. Although the tribe has no intention of applying this water to agricultural or M&I uses within the study area, revenues from leasing create additional activity in the study area in the form of increased consumption expenditures. Using projections provided by the tribe (see Aberly, 1995), 5,354 AF/yr was assumed to be leased to cities outside the study area (Albuquerque and Santa Fe) for the years 2000-2009. At an assumed 1995 lease rate of $132/AF/yr, this represents an annual 27
