<br />In order to facilitate comparison of the impacts which <br /> <br /> <br />different alternatives and their associated water uses will <br /> <br /> <br />have, a "matrix-display. approach will be used when the <br /> <br /> <br />alternatives are being evaluated on the basis of either quanti- <br /> <br /> <br />fiable criteria that are incommensurable or on the basis of <br /> <br /> <br />both quantifiable and semi-descriptive criteria. This approach <br /> <br /> <br />is particularly useful when many alternative systems are being <br /> <br /> <br />evaluated, because it can be used to eliminate the less- <br /> <br /> <br />favorable candidates and focus attention on three or four major <br /> <br /> <br />contenders. This approach should also facilitate public input <br /> <br /> <br />because the presentation tends to be relatively non-technical <br /> <br /> <br />and easily understood. <br /> <br /> <br />The results of Tasks I through IV will culminate in an <br /> <br /> <br />interim report submitted to the Director of the Colorado Water <br /> <br /> <br />Conservation Board for formal comment and review. Based upon <br /> <br /> <br />preliminary evaluation of all alternatives, the Director of the <br /> <br /> <br />Colorado Water Conservation Board, assisted by Woodward-Clyde <br /> <br /> <br />Consultants, will be responsible for the decision regarding <br /> <br /> <br />which development alternatives to drop from further considera- <br /> <br /> <br />tion in this study. It will also be the responsibility of the <br /> <br /> <br />Director of the Colorado Water Conservation Board to solicit <br /> <br /> <br />public input for the alternatives screening process. <br /> <br /> <br />Detailed Evaluation of Selected Alternatives (Task V) <br /> <br /> <br />In this more detailed analysis, the same conceptual <br /> <br /> <br />framework outlined in Tasks III and IV will be used, although <br /> <br />-10- <br />
