All alternatives that may give a solution to the <br /> <br />problem, either partly or wholly, would be studied and re-evaluated. <br /> <br />These should include, but not be restricted to, a dam and reservoir <br /> <br />on Coal Creek (dam site above town of Superior), purchase of irri- <br /> <br />gation water rights for water supply, importation of water from <br /> <br />other basins, ground water development from either surface or deep <br /> <br />aquifers, and/or any combination of the above. <br /> <br />Other activities associated with Coal Creek Association <br /> <br />According to information received by the state Water <br /> <br />Quality Control Division, Erie and Lafayette are on the eligibility <br /> <br />list for receiving about 80 percent grant money (federal and state) <br /> <br />to improve their sewage facilities.
