<br />DRAFT <br /> <br />Chapter 7: <br /> <br />Structural and Non-Structural Projects for Drought Mitigation <br /> <br />Authors: <br /> <br />Tracy Bouvette, Bouvette Consulting; Brad Lundahl, Colorado Water <br />Conservation Board <br /> <br />Drought mitigation can be performed through the combined efforts of local and regional <br />management programs and the planning for and implementation of structural and non- <br />structural projects. Gi ven the types of impacts caused by drought, coupled with ever <br />changing water supply and demand factors, existing local and regional management <br />programs may not allow for adequate protection of businesses and individual citizens. <br />Longer range planning and implementation of structural and/or non-structural projects <br />may be needed as conditions change to provide adequate drought protection. This chapter <br />will present a listing of potential structural and non-structural projects that may be <br />considered for drought mitigation and will discuss the pros and cons for each. <br /> <br />5/1612003 <br /> <br />Page 9 <br />
