<br />confidence" of available water supply from existing decrees and priorities to meet demands by <br />identifying the magnitude and frequency of supply surpluses and deficits projected to occur. <br /> <br />Simulation results will be used by the Consultant to identify flows and volumes available to: (1) meet <br />demands, (2) Louisville Reservoir, (3) Harper Lake, (4) Marshall Lake, (5) spills/surpluses - their <br />priorities and their long-term effect on the City's yields if storage would have been available, and (6) <br />return flow credits accrued to Coal Creek and South Boulder Creek as a result of the City's <br />consumptive use being less than historical agricultural consumptive use (where allowed under <br />individual transfer decrees). <br /> <br />5.0 ADDmONAL WATER YIELDS AND STORAGE <br /> <br />A scan of existing and proposed water rights and storage projects not currently owned by the City <br />shall be conducted for the purpose of identifying potential benefit to Louisville. This scan will be <br />done on a preliminary basis in a loose form to identify projects, potential costs per acre-foot, expected <br />safe yields and other information needed for further review and analysis by the City. The purpose of <br />this activity is to rank water supply options available to Louisville. <br /> <br />Various courses of action for increasing the available water supply (or decreasing the City's demand) <br />will be examined. Individual elements will be categorized into three groups: <br /> <br />(a) acquiring additional water rights or supplies from a maximum of four ditches. <br /> <br />(b) increasing storage capacity in Marshall Reservoir. <br /> <br />(c) new supplies: e.g.: <br /> <br />1) Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (NCWCD) <br />2) Municipal Sub-District of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (MS- <br />NCWCD) <br /> <br />The Consultant will identify the City's cost of getting Windy Gap from the MS-NCWCD in a manner <br />similar to that being currently pursued by Broomfield. This assessment will include the estimated cost <br />of transmission lines, raw water, treatment, etc. and will include the cost to get into the NCWCD and <br />the cost of Colorado Big Thompson (C-BT) project water. The Consultant will complete this task <br /> <br />A-5 <br /> <br />1961c.dr._a.TXT <br />01\23\91 mJb <br />
