<br />are at each location. "How much water leflallv must flow vast a fliven point <br />durinfl veak times. and how much water vhvsicallv can get through here without <br />significant impacts at those veak times?" <br /> <br />We will also be interested in structural and non-structural means for addressing <br />the problem locations you identifY. Structural means might be wiers, bank <br />protection, stream realignment practices to stabilize a currently unstable <br />location. Non-structural means might be modifications to land use regulations, <br />open space/riparian easements, or proposing limited reservoir control. " <br /> <br />Presentation to the Board <br /> <br />On Monday, May 22, 2000, the San Luis Valley Water Conservancy District will make a <br />presentation to the CWCB at the Board meeting. The presentation will provide Board members <br />with an understanding of conditions on the Rio Grande and how those conditions affected <br />landowners and other interested parties. Because of the length of the study reach, the substantial <br />width of the riparian corridor in many locations, and the difficulty of access to the river, a field <br />trip was deemed infeasible. The slide show should be adequate to convey the concerns about the <br />study reach. <br /> <br />Conclusion <br /> <br />The Rio Grande Headwaters Restoration Project is expected to provide the Water Conservancy <br />District with sufficient technical information and guidance to make decisions about responding <br />to the problems identified. Strategies, whether they be structural or non.structural, will be <br />identified. The Water Conservancy District can then determine how and when it wants to <br />proceed in trying to address unsatisfactory river condition. <br /> <br />L:\boardmemlmay2000\11 f - rio grande headwaters restoration project <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />f" <br />._,r- <br />. <br /> <br />-- <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br />
