Approximately one week later, on October 5, 1992, the Districts and CDM met with CWCB staff to discuss the status of the application and what additional work would be required for the CWCB to make a determination on whether the project should be recommended' to the Board for approval at the November 9-10 Board meeting. The outcome of this meeting was that additional information was necessary in the following areas: · Water rights and hydrology · Project description with detailed cost estimate · Financial analysis with details of project repayment Based on the direction provided by the CWCB, this FS was conducted to evaluate the project's physical and financial feasibility. In particular, this study focused on the ability of the project to meet the projected raw water supply needs of the Districts, the estimated cost of the project (representing the amount of the loan being requested from the CWCB), and the ability of the Districts to repay the CWCB for the loan. ....... Due to the limited time available to complete this study, information from previous studies was heavily relied upon. New analyses performed during this FS concentrated primarily upon (a) evaluating the Districts' water rights and planned water supply system and a hydrologic operational analysis of the proposed water supply system during a representative period of record; (b) development of a description of the proposed plan with preliminary engineering designs and associated cost estimates; (c) description of a financial program developed for the repayment of the project loan from the CWCB; and (d) preparing this report summarizing available information, previous studies, and this investigation following the CWCB's guidelines to the maximum extent possible. 1-3 S9S'1fAGOSA\Sl,TXT 10121/92 mm
