<br />CDM <br /> <br />SWSI Phase 2 Scope of Work <br /> <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 altematives 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! altematives 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 altematives. Storage, pumpback, and <br />conservation! efficiency altematives will be evaluated in the Colorado and Gunnison <br />basins. An agricultural transfer altemative will be developed for the South Platte <br />basin and an agricultural transfer will be developed for the Arkansas basin as well as <br />an evaluation of conservation! efficiency. The role of the Yampa River in meeting the <br />gap and compact deliveries will also be considered. <br /> <br />Once altematives are developed, they will be evaluated based on how they meet the <br />following SWSI 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 />Assumption/Basis of Cost <br />. Level of effort on the technical work to support the Addressing the Gap TRT will be <br />directed by the CWCB staff and board. <br /> <br />. Close coordination with the CWCB staff and Board is expected as the level of detail <br />developed for each for each altemative will in part be dependent on the total <br />number of altematives developed by the Addressing the Gap TRT. <br /> <br />Summary of Deliver abies <br />.
