If not, how will this <br />uncertainty' affect the region? <br /> <br />(e) What energy prices should be used to cost <br />ground water pumping? Pumping for inter'-basin" <br /> <br />. ',' <br /> <br />transfers? <br /> <br />(d) How will the search for new energy supplies <br />affect the demand for the quantity and <br /> <br />quality of water in the region? <br />(e) What impact will existing natural gas leasing <br />arrangements have on the cost and availability <br />of natural gas in various states? <br /> <br />(f) What technologies are on the horizon whicp..'....: ,.' <br />might significantly affect the costs, the <br />demand/ or the sources of energy used for <br /> <br />pumping? <br /> <br />The energy price and technology assessment is to be <br />based on the judgment of experts in the field relying <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />on the best available data and studies; major new <br /> <br />research efforts are not contemplated for this element. <br /> <br />- - --~ <br />
