<br />3. If no alternate routes are clearly comparable on a <br />cost basis, then use the existing alignment and do not <br />proceed with further study on the alternate alignments <br />(go to line 7). If other alignments show a strong <br />potential to be a belter route at comparable costs, <br />then those alignments should be studied further. <br /> <br />4. Check with other agencies who may have conflicts with <br />alternate routes and determine land acquisition ~eeds <br />that would be needed. <br /> <br />5. Prepare preliminary location plan sheets showing <br />feasible horizontal alignments and examine each for <br />cost-effectiveness, right-of-way locations (including <br />preliminary cost estimates), and interference with <br />above-ground and underground structures and utilities. <br /> <br />6. Identify the most feasible pipeline alignment between <br />the existing alignment and the other alternate routes <br />in conjunction with CWCB and the City of Cortez. <br /> <br />7. <br /> <br />Determine the pipeline <br />and industrial usage <br />geneC"ation. <br /> <br />size necessary for municipal <br />and effective hydropower <br /> <br />8. Establish the preliminary plan and profile dC"awings <br />for the route selected. <br /> <br />9. Review and select the most suitable pipeline materials <br />utilizing results from available geotechnical data. A <br />soils analysis is to be conducted as soon as the most <br />feasible alignment is selected. <br /> <br />Task 6--Hydropower Study. <br /> <br />1. Review hydraulic characteristics at the City reservoir <br />and water treatment plant including minimum, average, <br />and peak flow rates. <br /> <br />2. Evaluate power company requirements for generation and <br />purchase of hydro?ower. <br /> <br />3. Review power requirements at the City.s filtration <br />plant. <br /> <br />4. Analyze various hydropower systems for applicability. <br />5. Evaluate equipment and associated costs. <br /> <br />6. Determine feasibility of a hydropower generating <br />system and recommend course of action. <br /> <br />Exhibit A-3 <br /> <br />3/IS/8S-R <br />
