<br />EXHIBIT 2 <br /> <br />The methods that will be used to monitor the reduction in the useage <br />will be the meter readings themselves. The Town has kept very detailed <br />meter readings from over the last 10 years and will be able to track the <br />change in useage with no problem. We will evaluate the project results <br />by comparing the useage reports from the past, present and future years, <br />this will enable us to monitor any changes in the useage for the Town of <br />Wiggins. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT 3 <br /> <br />The idea came from a study that was done of several communities in <br />Northeast Colo. that have metered water systems. A study was done on <br />eight differant communities in the region with regard to cost, average <br />consumption, water conserved and energy and c.Qst savings to the Towns. <br />The eight communities involved were all of comparable size and relative <br />in location to Wiggins. The communuties were Akron, Bennett, Burlington, <br />Byers, Strasburg, Stratton, Wray and Yuma. From this study the Town of <br />Wiggins came to the conclusion the most cost effective way to conserve <br />both water and energy would be with the implementation of a metered <br />water system. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT 4 <br /> <br />The community support is taking the form of the matching funds being <br />contributed towards the meter project. An imforrnational program will <br />be planned which will involve differant members of the community. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT 5 <br /> <br />The results of this program will be shared with any interested party <br />needing imformation on any feature of the program we can help with. I <br />feel there are other small communities in the State of Colorado that can <br />benefit from the data that will be obtained from the documenting records <br />that will be kept and compared to past consumption records, from this <br />other communities can see the impact this will have for Wiggins. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT 6 <br /> <br />The innovative features of this project are minimal, but the antici- <br />pated benefits are very high. The Town feels with the installation of <br />the meters that the water consumption will drop by at least 1/3rd of what <br />it is now and this will also show a large decrease in the power consumption <br />which will also conserve energy. From the reduction of the water and <br />power useage it will benefit not only the residents of Wiggins but also <br />the residents in the surrounding area. <br />
