Denver <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br />79-586 <br /> <br />TO: <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Bill Smith <br /> <br />q)L~ <br /> <br />David Carlson <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Public Involvement and Technical Coordination Components of State Workplan <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />September 4, 1979 <br /> <br />Thi s memorandum contai ns program and budget detail s for these two components for the <br />Colorado portion of the Ogallala-High Plains Project. It is understood that both com- <br />ponents are to be managed by the Colorado Department of Agriculture, which will receive <br />$50,000 in project funds, plus 16 percent in indirect costs, to carry out the tasks de- <br />scribed below. You will note that $20,000 is budgeted for public involvement and $30,000 <br />for technical management. This is a change from our earlier estimates of $15,000 for <br />public involvement and $35,000 for technical management. <br /> <br />PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT COMPONENT <br /> <br />Description <br /> <br />, <br />This component has three major objectives: (i) to disseminate information early on <br />the 90als and scope of work of the project to agricultural organizations, civic groups, <br />government officials, and other interested groups and persons; (ii) to keep these groups <br />and persons informed as to the progress of the project at regular intervals; and (iii) to <br />identify issues, concerns, and suggestions from these groups and persons, and to transmit <br />them to work element leaders and the general contractor whenever appropriate. <br /> <br />The key element of this component is the establishment of a regional advisory <br />committee for the duration of the project. This committee will consist of 8-15 members, <br />representing major interest groups and geographical areas in the region. The committee <br />will be requested to assist Department staff in developing the overall direction and <br />details of the public involvement component, <br /> <br />-IT <br /> <br />
