Alternatives will be comprised of one or more "Plan Elements"; a Plan Element is a unique, specific action that the City may take to reduce or eliminate projected water supply deficits. Purchase of additional CBT units, for example, would be a Plan Element. The range of Plan Elements to be considered in Phase II is described in Section 2.2. Any Plan Element which can eliminate the deficit under the Design Condition will also be considered as a "single-element" alternative. Public participation in the Phase II study will be encouraged and is provided for in two fashions: 1) a Citizens Forum which will meet monthly to receive and discuss study progress reports, and 2) a public hearing at which the Interim Report will be presented. The Citizens Forum will be set up by the City and will be composed of interested citizens and/or local groups. The Citizens Forum will meet with the City and COM prior to monthly Yater Board meetings. At the Citizens Forum meeting, the group will be updated on the progress and results of the study and will be allowed to comment upon and discuss the study's findings to date. Changes or additions to the Plan of Study as a result of the Forum's input will be considered as additional work. The Phase II study will be completed in 6 steps as follows: 1. Evaluation of CBT System Constraints (i.e., operational constraints affecting the use of the Dille Tunnel and Charles Hansen Feeder Canal) with respect to the City'S total water supply deficit or surplus. 2. Evaluation of Plan Elements. 2-1
