.1 I I I I I I I I' 1 I 1 which would meet minimum health standards.' A major disadvantage' is that the supply system by the CWCWD is a substantial distance away and would require a large expenditure of funds for transmission mains. Preliminary cost figures have been prepared in a later chapter to provide a general understanding of the scope and financial require- ments of this alternate. Preliminary studies indicate that it would be most practical to use this source as a supplemental supply to the existing deep wells water supply. ,In order to meet water quality standards, it would be necessary to blend at ,least 20% of CWCWD water with deep well water to meet minimum standards. Two possible lOcations to connect with the CWCWD system were determined to be at Storage Tank No. 2 located approximately 20 miles northeast of Keenesburg or at the transmission main of the District located directly to the east of the tri-town area of Firestone, Frederick and Dacono.. This second location would allow possible joint participation with other communities such as Ft. Lupton, Hudson, and/or other rural users extending to Keenesburg. These alternates are shown in Exhibit V-2. A booster pumping facility would be required in order to transmit the water to Keenesburg from the District. Unfortunately, the NCWCD has established limiting boundaries beyond' which it will not allow CBT water to be delivered. Keenesburg is not within the Conservancy District boundary. Because CWCWDuses CBT water as a source of supply, it is limited to the boundaries of the . NCWCD. The NCWCD Boa rd ha s been very fi rm in its pol icy for not expanding its boundaries. However, there have been recent activities which may allow alternate considerations. One of these is that the "Six Cities" project or "Hindy Gap" project will bring additional transmountain water through facilities of the NCWCD. This water may be delivered outside the v - 3
