<br />Page 8 <br /> <br />1. First Priority Investiqations and Studies <br /> <br />The recommended first priority investigations and studies are <br />focused on determining a specific recommended plan to meet future demands for <br />M&l fi rm water supply in the Study Area, and to determine speci fic measures <br />for increasing irrigation water use efficiency. These investigations and <br />studies are intended to result in a preliminary feasibi lity evaluation and a <br />specific plan or set of structural and non-structural measures. The fol lowing <br />categories of investigations and studies are recommended: <br /> <br />a. Engineering related to development of addi tional M&I fi rm <br />yield, including engineering investigations of reservoir <br />sit es 0 flit tie Thompson No.2, No r th Sheep Moun ta in, Sm i thy <br />Mountain, and enlargement of Ralph Price Reservoir. The <br />feasibi I ity of developing storage at Dowe Flats and of rais- <br />ing Carter Lake as an alternative terminal storage reservoir <br />for Longmont's Windy Gap Project entitlement would also be <br />studied, as would a number of other related engineering <br />invest igat ions. <br /> <br />b. Engineering and analysis of measures to reduce municipal <br />water demand and to increase irrigation water use efficiency. <br /> <br />c. Environmental and social impact studies related to effects of <br />implementing pertinent water resource management measures. <br /> <br />d. Policy and institutional analyses. <br /> <br />e. <br /> <br />Selection of a preferred major storage <br />sideration of envi ronmental, social, <br />institutional, and engineering factors. <br /> <br />from con- <br />financial, <br /> <br />reservoir, <br />economic, <br /> <br />2. Preparation of Implementation Proqram <br /> <br />Following completion of first priority investigations, a program <br />for conducting full feasibility studies should be prepared, which will lead to <br />decisions regarding implementation of a recommended plan for water resources <br />management. Th i s program shou Id i nc I ude act i v i ties such as deta i led schedu l- <br />ing for early action items (e.g. permitting and financing), identification of <br />agencies that wi II be responsible as lead agencies for implementation of <br />specific plan elements and development of a general financing plan to provide <br />funding that wi I I carry program implementation into the feasibi I ity, EIS, and <br />permitting stages. The financing plan would also identify the most likely <br />funding approaches for engineering design and construction of structural fea- <br />tures, and implementation of non-structural measures. <br /> <br />3. Needed Future Studies <br /> <br />To develop and implement a truly comprehensive water resources <br />management program a number of additional future studies wi I I be needed. Some <br />of these studies do not have a fixed time-frame but others may be required <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br /> <br />I <br />I-I <br />
