CWCB <br /> <br />Re: RWIS Feasibility Study <br /> <br />Dear Jim: <br /> <br />As 1 mentioned in our telephone conversation today, we have reviewed the Jerome Gamba & Associates <br />feasibility study for the Town of Silt Raw Water Irrigation System. A copy of our detailed comments on the <br />report is enclosed. <br /> <br />Our primary concerns are in the following areaS: <br /> <br />The lack of descriptive information for water demands, the existing water system, and <br />the proposed project. <br /> <br />A failure to formulate and evaluate a reasonable number of alternatives. As a <br />minimum, the with- and without- project scenarios should be considered. <br /> <br />The need for more information on the financial program and the indication from the <br />30-year revenue and expenditure projections that the project may not be financially feasible. <br /> <br />The indication from the report that the project will result in a much higher level of <br />total water use. <br /> <br />As I mentioned, I will be out of the office from July 10th to the 12th. If you and Bob Pennington <br />would like to meet to discuss our comments and the presentation of the study results to the Board, the best date <br />might be next Friday the 14th. <br /> <br />If you have questions in the meantime please call Bill Stanton at (303)866-3441. <br /> <br />73~ <br /> <br />Wjlliam E.
