<br />- - -I <br /> <br />Preface '" <br /> <br /> <br />This Conservation Master Plan was developed to provide a policy <br /> <br /> <br />and a guideline for future conservation activities for the City of <br /> <br /> <br />Grand Junction water service area. The Conservation Plan has a set of <br /> <br /> <br />goals that either maintain or reduce water uses. The plan also <br /> <br /> <br />describes, in general terms, methods to reach each goal. It <br /> <br /> <br />establishes the criteria by which specific conservation measures will <br /> <br /> <br />be selected as well as a process for measuring results. The glossary <br /> <br /> <br />at the back of the document defines terms which may need clarification <br />and/or context for this Master Plan. <br />In this document, water conservation is defined as eliminating <br />water waste and making beneficial water uses more efficient. This <br />includes but is not limited to efficient use of financial resources <br />dedicated to providing water to the people of Grand Junction. <br />Conservation does not mean deprivation or preservation. Rather, the <br />term encompasses the voluntary choices people make about water to <br />.ensure a sustainable future. <br />This plan is to be carried out through Annual Conservation Action <br />Plans. Each Action Plan will list specific measures or programs to be <br />implemented each year along with the associated costs, <br />responsibilities and target goals. Action Plans will also include an <br />---- evaluation of the- prcJ"iou3 year '.13 plan - - Ivl,,,t wULk."U emU whaL did:,,+-t-;--- <br />what goals were met, what needs to be changed, and other relevant <br />information. A summary of the. current Annual Plan will be available <br />upon request from the Utility Managers Office, 250 N. 5th. Street, <br />Grand Junction, Colorado, 81501, by December of each year. <br />The Conservation Master Plan is an ever-evolving document. As <br />new ideas are developed which meet the criteria, they will be added. <br />Existing ideas that have been fully implemented or are deemed no <br />longer viable will be deleted.
