<br />., <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />.' <br /> <br />dl For wells using electricity as the source of energy, developing the procedures for the <br />collection and processing of power data and for the estimation of pumping. <br /> <br />e) For wells not using electricity as the source of energy, developing the procedures for <br />the collection and processing of the necessary data and for the estimation of pumping. <br /> <br />f) Collecting the necessary data and estimating the well pumping during a reasonable <br />period of hydrologic record. The results of this work item will be used in Tasks 3 and <br />4 to assess the required amounts of replacement water. <br /> <br />LAWMA believes that is has an obligation to its members to maintain the confidentiality of <br />well-by-well power and pumping data. It does, however, plan to let the State Engineer or his <br />representative examine and evaluate the procedures used to develop these pumping estimates <br />and to make the overall results available to the State Engineer. <br /> <br />.Task 3 DevelopinQ the data-collection and computational procedures to estimate the <br />depletion that occurs from the LAWMA wells. <br /> <br />LAWMA understands that the State Engineer's Office is presently extending the <br />computer programs and data bases that make up its Water Budget through 1992. LAWMA <br />envisions that it will rely on this Water Budget to estimate the depletions from its members' <br />wells providing that reasonable arrangements can be made with the State Engineer's Office. <br />The following work items will be involved in this task: <br /> <br />a) Coordinating with the appropriate .officials in the State Engineer's office to work out <br />the arrangements for the use of .the updated Water Budget and ground water models. <br /> <br />b) Examining the assumptions involved in the Water Budget and ground water models to <br />be sure they are reasonable from LAWMA's perspective and identifying any <br />deficiencies that exist in the input data. <br /> <br />c) Developing specific procedures tousewith the Water Budget and ground water models <br />to estimate the depletions from the pumping of its members' wells. <br /> <br />d) Estimating well depletions over a reasonable period of hydrologic record. Depletions <br />will be quantified in time and by river segment. Specific ditches that were affected <br />will also be identified. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Task 4 - AssessinQ capabilities and limitations of existinQ replacement sources. <br /> <br />As previously described, LAWMA presently owns water rights and water resource <br />facilities that it intends to commit to its replacement project. These particular assets include <br />the Stubbs water right, 300 shares in the Manvel Canal and Irrigation Company, and the <br />water right for the Peterson Ditch. The historical use, consumptive use, return flow, and <br />stream depletion associated with these water rights will be assessed as part of this task. <br />These items will be assessed in terms of location and timing, as well as overall quantity. <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />... <br />
