<br />. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />1. !iW-opr or SPrvwps <br /> <br />The Project consists of the Contractor developing an outdoor environmental center where students can utilize their skills in <br />practical applications. This center will provide the resource for teaching practical math and science concepts. The Project goals <br />include: increasing community awareness of the effects of xeriscaping, extending the useful life of the ContractOr's water system, <br />and to collecting data for evaluation of future programs. <br /> <br />The plant materials chosen will provide an environment capable of sustaining various birds and insect species, which will allow <br />for unlimited educational opportunities. There will be a xeriscape garden that will give the Contractor the means of making a <br />hands ()o approach to water use efficiency available to students, teachers and the community. Lesson plans will be developed <br />to be utilized by all teachers in the elementary school. The students will be involved in preparing signage to identify plant <br />species in the garden. <br /> <br />The Contractor will recruit volunteers to come in with tractors and equipment to work the ground and prepare it for planting. <br />The planting will continue throughout the fall and spring with parents, students, teachers and community help. In order to <br />monitor the water an in line meter will be installed and a weather station will be set up in the new area. The in line meter will <br />allow the school to monitor the continual decline of the water usage as the zones become established. The impact on the <br />community will be evaluated through surveys and observations. <br /> <br />A Final Report shall be compiled Upon completion of the Project. The Final Report shall include a summary of the Project, <br />discussion of the Project implementation, Project findings and water savings results. The Final Report will not only conclude the <br />Project but will serve as infonnation to be shared with other Colorado communities. <br /> <br />2.
