Input <br />will also include: the capacities of the City's physical conveyance system, the City's current and <br />anticipated ownership of water rights and the capacity of other conveyance facilities routinely used by <br />the City in the conveyance of its raw water. All values will be in acre feet, or a flow rate in cubic <br />feet per second. Output will be in spreadsheet form identifying demands met from direct flow rights <br />or storage releases. Water surpluses will go to storage where space is available or be spilled. <br />Monthly and annual totals will reflect average, minimum and maximum usage, yields, surpluses, <br />spills, and rerum flow credits (where applicable). <br /> <br />Flexibility will be built into the model to allow specific years of the historic period to be simulated; <br />expansion of current water rights ownership, conveyance improvements, or the addition of storage <br />facilities; the acquisition of additional water rights; or inclusion of a project which adds raw water <br />supply to the City's system. The additional raw water supply may be specified by the user as <br />individual monthly values for the entire simulation period or as annual values which may be used in <br />aily fashion during a given year on an as-needed basis (e.g., annual C-BT quotas). <br /> <br />4.0 EVALUATE EXISTING RAW WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM <br /> <br />Using the computer model developed in Task 3.0, the Consultant will evaluate the reliability of the <br />City's existing system under the three water demand scenarios. This assessment will indicate the <br />ability of the City's currently owned water rights to meet existing and two future demand scenarios <br />under a variety of runoff conditions and the drought condition: 'It will also show the "level of <br /> <br />A-4 <br /> <br />196\ca:b...TXT <br />07\23\91 mIb <br />
