Future-Level Use
The two future level operating scenarios consisted of increasing the demands of certain
existing projects and adding presently undeveloped conditional projects to the Existing-Level Use
Scenario to produce target levels of water demand under projected moderate and high levels of
future development in the basin. The projects to be expanded and developed in the future and the
target levels of demand were established by the Authority in consultation with the DWB and the
CRWCD, Specific projects included in Moderate and High Future-Level Use Scenarios are as
follows:

,-.

Moderate-Future Scenario
All of those projects under the Existing-Use Scenario were utilized plus:
o Homestake Project (Phase II)
o Ruedi Reservoir Marketing (partial use)
o Rock Creek Reservoir
o Indian Creek Reservoir

HiQh-Future Scenario
All of the projects included in the Existing-Use and Moderate Future-Use Scenarios
were utilized plus:

~ 0 Eagle-Arkansas
0 Continental-Hoosier
,......, 0 Pueblo/Eagle
0 Ruedi Reservoir Marketing (full use)
0 West Divide Project
0 Red Cliff Project

,-. Green Mountain Reservoirs)

Although not specifically identified by individual towns or ski area, the high projected
demand of the Upper Fraser River, Upper Blue River, and the Eagle River areas were considered. It
was felt that Green Mountain water sales, Indian Creek Reservoir, and Rock Creek Reservoir would
accommodate the needs of these areas, It should be recognized that this Study was focused on the
entire basin and was not intended to cover site-specific water supply problems or demand
projections,
