Draft technical memoranda will be initially submitted to the State in <br />electronic format. The State will have up to 6 weeks to review memoranda and provide <br />comments and questions to the CU contractor. The State's comments will be addressed and both <br />paper copies and an electronic version of the final Memoranda will be submitted. In general, <br />technical memoranda will be included in the final Historic Consumptive Use Report as <br />appendices. <br /> <br />Deliverable Formats <br />All deliverables will be consistent with the DSS design, including use of data structures, <br />formats, and standards that are being developed by the Database DSS team (e.g. all maps will be <br />provided in ArcView format). All deliverables provided under this Scope of Work will use DSS <br />standards for memoranda, reports, data, GIS, program documentation, etc. <br /> <br />Task 1 . Research and Identify Appropriate Study Period <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />The SPDSS Feasibility Study recommended a study period of 1950 to the current year based on <br />the availability of digitized streamflow and diversion records. This study period should be further <br />refined based on the data being digitized as part of the SPDSS and the long-term hydrology of the <br />basin. <br /> <br />Objective: <br /> <br />To identify the best study period to capture the variability in the hydrologic conditions which <br />have occurred in the South Platte and North Platte River basins while maintaining cost-effective <br />modeling efforts. <br /> <br />Approach: <br /> <br />SPDSS Consumptive Use and Water Budget Component <br /> <br />11 <br />
