. . Project Budget: . Total anticipated cost is $466,672 for a 3 year project. Of this total, $170,000 is for the proposed new well core to be drilled in early 1999. The NSF has been asked for $50,000 of the well costs and we must raise $120,000 locally for the core together with approximately $42,000 for hydrologic analysis of the core. We are seeking $120,000 from the Project Planning and Construction Branch of the Colorado Water Conservation Board. We anticipate raising the remaining $42,000 from local Municipal water providers and County authorities. Allocations of local funding can be contingent on the receipt of the NSF funds.

All publications developed from this core analyses will be publicly available. The USGS will produce a published report on the hydrologic aspects of the Elbert County Research core. The Denver Museum of Natural History will coordinate the geological and paleontological aspects of the core and related research and will present results of the study in a variety of scientific and popular publications, public programs, and temporary exhibits. .
