<br />COM <br /> <br />SWSI Phase 2 Work Plan Outline <br /> <br />- Voluntary Flow Management Agreements <br />Re-operation to enhance recreational benefits without impacting yield <br />- Recreational In Channel Diversions <br />- Acquisition of Water Rights <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Addressing the Gap Including Water Supply Solutionsl Alternatives <br />SWSI identified that there were gaps in meeting 2030 M&I demands and the gap <br />could widen if identified projects and processes that M&I providers are planning to <br />implement are not successful. The locations of these gaps include the Colorado River <br />headwaters, Gunnison basin headwaters, rural areas in the San JuanjDolores/San <br />Miguel basin, unincorporated EI Paso County, and the Southern Denver Metropolitan <br />Area. Agricultural shortages were identified by SWSI in all basins. Environmental and <br />recreational needs identified in the Prioritize and Quantify Recreation and <br />Environment Needs TRT will also be examined by this TRT. <br /> <br />The Addressing the Gap TRT, in addition to examining alternatives to the M&I gap, <br />will discuss and develop alternatives that will address M&I uncertainty; existing <br />agricultural shortages; environmental enhancements; recreational enhancements; and <br />conceptual level yields, costs, and implementation issues. Solution/ Alternatives will <br />be analyzed and evaluated for both in-basin and trans-basin concepts. This TRT will <br />also discuss funding issues relative to the alternatives. Once alternatives are . <br />developed, they will be evaluated based on how they meet the following SWSI <br />objectives: <br /> <br />. Sustainably Meet M&I Demands <br />. Sustainably Meet Agricultural Demands <br />. Optimize Existing and Future Water Supplies <br />. Enhance Recreational Opportunities <br />. Provide for Environmental Enhancement <br />. Promote Cost Effectiveness <br />. Protect Cultural Values <br />. Provide for Operational Flexibility <br />. Comply with All Applicable Laws and Regulations <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br />$'IPHA$E 2 WORK PlAN\$WSI PHASE 2 WORKPLAN OUTLINE 5-12.DOC <br />
