Study Area The study area shall include all lands within the Colorado portion of the White River Basin which could be developed from the District's water rights. Storage and diversion facilities to be studied shall be only such as would be located on the White River or its tributaries upstream from the confluence with Piceance Creek. Conduct of the Study The study shall be performed under the general guidance and direction of the State. The ~ontractor shall be responsible for all work tasks and written products set forth hereinafter. Work Tasks The Scope of Services has been developed in response to the objectives of the study given the budgetary constraints and the time frame involved. It is based on task descriptions which are intended to show the methodology to be employed and the associ- ated depth of analysis that is appropriate for each of these tasks in an appraisal-level study. This study shall be performed as outlined below in 12 separate tasks to evaluate the technical and financial feasibility of the project alternatives.
