<br />f;6.J~t} <br /> <br />Project Work Plan <br />For <br />13A ASSESSMENTS <br />(Missouri and Upper, Colorado River Basins) <br /> <br />."~ <br />hAlo <br />"'-" <br />W <br /> <br />1. Name of Project <br /> <br />13A Assessments. Requesting agency is the Water Resources Council. <br /> <br />II. Location <br /> <br />Missouri River Basin (Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota) <br />and Upper Colorado River Basin (Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico). <br />(See map on page 2). <br /> <br />III. Purpose and Authorization <br /> <br />;;:~i;~~ <br />".', <br /> <br />A. Total Project <br />With increasing demand for both energy and water, a farsighted <br />evaluation of how water resources in the west should be <br />apportioned to satisfy all present and future needs is critical. <br />Section l3(a) of the Federal Nonnuclear Energy Research and <br />Development Act of 1974 (42 USC 5912, 9(e)), as amended, gives <br />authority to the Water Resources Council to enter into agreement <br />with the States in the preparation and completion of assessments <br />of the impacts of the potential commitment of water to develop- <br />ment of emerging coal and oil shale technologies. <br /> <br />B. HE:RS.,MCRO <br />.Tite'lI~ri.tage Conservation and Recreation Service, in cooperation <br />lifth the IIlstream Flow Group (Western Energy and Land Use'Team) <br />and the identified States, will assist the Water Resources <br />,Council in evaluating recreation potential with respect to <br />f~oW on various river segments within the study area. The <br />Se-rv'ice w'il1 also coordinate with Stat.e recreation agencies <br />in developing recreation management obj'ectives to assure that <br />river recreation resources are fully considered in any future <br />energy resources development plans. <br /> <br />IV. Scope <br /> <br />A. Total Project <br />The Water Resources Council, in cooperation with the affected <br />States and with assistance from various Federal agencies, will <br />perform regional level water ass~ssments of development of <br />emerging coal and oil shale technologies in the Missouri and <br />Upper Colorado River Basins. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />~~ <br /> <br />>"'-::~':'- <br /> <br />f}:}\$> <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />~~~t~.'?:,~- <br />.;;;.:..::.;- <br />~;<~i{;~~ <br />~f~t <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />'if'S.--;.s.: <br />~~'" <br />f~W <br />?t'v,=.~ <br /> <br />~yl~ <br />t[{tf <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />:o_~_~" <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />~f!~~ <br />'.x~.;.:~ <br />::;~f~:' -) <br />':-....~. <br />~::ff~r <br /> <br />..:~:::;::;:t;; <br />~~~:) :::~.: <br />.'~' ....~... <br />,..,,'-.-:"" <br />-"".c';._:--' <br />;:'-':'.:~/_": <br />};;<~:"; <br /> <br />.....-..... <br /> <br />.-', <br />:-'. <br /> <br />:_/;~';-,:/ <br />.:';. -~:.: <br /> <br />:':~ ~., <br />(:?<.-. <br />,,_~_.. ,_, ....
