<br />Final Draft - Preferred Storage Options Plan <br />Southeastern Colorado Water Conservancy District <br />June 8, 2000 <br /> <br />generally are expected to have fewer environmental consequences than <br />constructing new dams and reservoirs to provide the same volume of storage. <br /> <br />In addition to these consequences, the lack of adequate water storage would adversely impact <br />the ability of municipalities to meet their water service commitments. This could result in <br />significant water shortages, economic losses, and public hardship. As described previously, the <br />projected needs for additional storage have assumed that active, successful water conservation <br />plans are in place in the municipal sector throughout the District, resulting in a decrease in the <br />per capita water use on a District-wide basis. The demand projection for additional storage <br />assumes that this level of conservation will be achieved. <br /> <br />J\PROJECTS\9906IIRepons\Prcferrcd SOP Final wpd <br /> <br />2-13 <br /> <br />ID GEl Consultants, Inc. <br />
