<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />diversions during wet and dry years to determine if other CRDSS basins could improve <br />representation through application of variable efficiencies. <br /> <br />Task 4.2 Estimate the Cost for Simulating CRDSS Basins Using Variable Efficiency <br />Develop preliminary costs and hours for simulating the other CRDSS Basin models using <br />StateMod variable efficiency methodology. Costs will be based on the development of StateMod <br />input files, the effort required to run StateMod analyses, and the necessary review and <br />documentation of scenario results. <br /> <br />Task 4.3 Document the Costs and Benefits for Simnlating CRDSS Basins Using Variable Efficiency <br />Prepare a memorandum of recommendation to the CWCB discussing both the costs and benefits <br />for simulating CRDSS basins using variable efficiency based on the results of Tasks 3.1 and 3.2. <br />Concerns and any potential need for further investigation will be discussed. After State review, <br />address comments and concerns in the final memorandum. <br /> <br />TASK 5 - PROJECT MANAGEMENT <br /> <br />Objective: <br /> <br />To provide a forum for technical, schedule and budget issue discussions with state representatives. <br /> <br />Approach: <br /> <br />Task 5.1 Invoices and Progress Reports <br />Monthly invoices (4 expected) will be prepared that include billing by person, rate, hours, and <br />charge. Invoices will include monthly progress reports that show I) a task summary that <br />presents the budget, costs to date, percent spent, and percent complete, 2) work activity <br />description that describes the work accomplished that month and estimated percent complete for <br />each subtask presented in the budget, and 3) a summary of concerns on technical, budget or <br />schedule. Also included will be a description of other direct costs and a summary of retain age <br />(previous retainage held, retainage this period, total retainage). <br /> <br />Task 5.2 Coordination Meetings <br />Prepare for and attend monthly meetings (4 expected) with State representatives to discuss <br />results, issues and recommendations. Meetings will be held when significant results are to be <br />presented or issues need to be discussed. <br /> <br />Task 5.3 Yampa Basin Meetings <br />Attend up to two meetings in the Yampa Basin with State representatives. Prepare to present <br />results and benefits of using variable efficiency and soil moisture accounting enhancements in <br />StateMod. <br /> <br />C:\Cdss\statemod\Variabte eft evaluation contract~ 4.doc <br /> <br />Page 15 <br />
