<br />4. Factors indicating that the project is scientifically and technically feasible <br />(applicable only to commercial projects): <br /> <br />The operational procedures implimented for this project were basicly derived <br /> <br />from the operations and research results of two long-term Colorado-based <br /> <br /> <br />winter weather modification research programs. One project was located near <br /> <br /> <br />Climax, Colorado, which indicated the seedability of orographic-type winter <br /> <br />cloud systems. Conclusions and a summary of research results are attached <br /> <br /> <br />to this page to substantiate the anticipated augmentation potential from <br /> <br /> <br />orographic cloud systems. Significant facts of the results have been under- <br /> <br /> <br />scored. <br /> <br />The other Colorado research program was located in the San Juan Mountains. <br /> <br /> <br />Research results from the evaluation report are also attached to this page <br /> <br /> <br />to substantiate that similar cloud systems in the San Juan Mountains respond <br /> <br /> <br />to cloud seeding with about the same augmentation potential as the Central <br /> <br /> <br />Colorado orographic cloud systems. <br /> <br />All of these research results and an independent evaluation of the San Juan <br /> <br /> <br />project by Mr. L.M. Hjermstad of Western Weather Consultants, Inc., indicate <br /> <br /> <br />that the anticipated seasonal precipitation augmentation potential derived <br /> <br />by these research efforts ranges between 15 and 25 per cent for this type of <br /> <br />a winter weather modification project. <br /> <br />9 <br />
