<br />. <br /> <br />,I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />II <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />! I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />'I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />1.3 POTENTIAL RESERVOIR SITES <br /> <br />Two of the four potential reservoir sites at which water availability was to be <br /> <br /> <br />investigated were indicated in the Request for Proposals while the remaining two <br /> <br /> <br />specific sites were to be selected as part of this study. <br /> <br />The pre-determined potential reservoir sites to be investigated were described as <br />follows: <br /> <br />1. <br /> <br />On the mainstem of the Rio Grande immediately above the confluence with Goose <br />Creek (referred to as Wagon Wheel Gap site). <br /> <br />2. <br /> <br />On the mainstem of the Rio Grande immediately below the confluence with Trout <br />Creek (referred to in previous studies as the Vega Sylvestre site). <br /> <br />The Request for Proposal identified two river reaches, as described below, for <br /> <br /> <br />location of the remaining two potential reservoir sites (one in each reach): <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br />On the mainstem of the Rio Grande from below the confluence with Goose Creek <br />to above the confluence with the South Fork of the Rio Grande. <br /> <br />4. <br /> <br />On the mainstem of the South Fork of the Rio Grande above the confluence with <br />Beaver Creek. <br /> <br />The nature of this study dictates that site selection be based primarily on factors <br /> <br /> <br />influencing physical and legal water availability rather than factors such as <br /> <br /> <br />geologic conditions, road relocation, land ownership, cost of dams or environmental <br /> <br /> <br />impact. Consideration of these other factors are left for subsequent studies. <br /> <br />Discussed below are 1) the Wagon Wheel Gap site, 2) the Vega Sylvestre site, <br /> <br /> <br />3) three potential storage sites on the Rio Grande reach from Goose Creek to South <br /> <br /> <br />Fork, and 4) three potential storage sites on the South Fork upstream of its <br /> <br />confluence with Beaver Creek. <br /> <br />Based on the evaluations discussed below, the <br /> <br />following four potential dam sites were included in the water availability analyses <br /> <br /> <br />for the Rio Grande Water Supply Study - Phase I. <br /> <br />Wagon Wheel Gap (WWG) dam site <br /> <br />7 <br />
