<br />'. <br /> <br />"'~ <br />'.f) <br />\.'1'; <br />.-! <br /><:-.) <br />c:.) <br /> <br />After reviewing the full development plan and the projected <br />non-federal costs, especially the annual operation and <br />maintenance cost, the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation <br />concluded that it could not support the plan in light of the <br />budget constraints which it faces. This conclusion, coupled with <br />the fact that the monies previously authorized by the legislature <br />($500,000) are substantially less than those needed for the full <br />development plan and for the other land acquisitions which the <br />state must make for the project, made it obvious that an <br />alternative enhancement plan had to be formulated. <br /> <br />Accordingly, the Bureau of Reclamation has provided a <br />"reduced development" plan with minimum recreation and fish and <br />wildlife enhancement facilities. The reduced development plan <br />would eliminate most non-fishing recreation facilities and would <br />put emphasis on San Luis Lake as a "fishing lake" rather than as <br />a "balanced use lake" (as would have been the case in the full <br />development plan). The pUblic use facilities included in and the <br />cost of the reduced development plan are shown in tables 3 and 4, <br />respectively. Lake stabilization facilities would be the same in <br />ooth plans (table 2). <br /> <br />, <br />Repayment for the reduced plan would total $528,000, as <br />follows: <br /> <br /> Recreation F & W Total <br />Total Costs $732,000 $989,000 $1,721,000 <br />Reimbursable costs 366,000 247,000 613,000 <br />Plus reimbursable IDC 9,000 6,000 15,000 <br />Less land easement credit 40,000 60,000 100,000 <br />Net non-federal repayment $335,000 $193,000 $528,000 <br /> <br />Annual operation, maintenance, and replacement is estimated at <br />$50,000. All of these costs. are in October, 1982, dollars. <br /> <br />The Bureau has advised that a repayment contract for the <br />reimbursable recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement <br />features should be executed before construction is initiated on <br />stage 3 of the project. According to the Bureau's current <br />schedule, construction of stage 3 salvage wells will be started <br />in February, 1983. Thus, designs and specifications will be <br />under preparation this fall and the invitation for bids should be <br />announced prior to the end of the year. Therefore, the Bureau <br />would like the contract finalized over the next couple of months. <br /> <br />~ecommendations <br /> <br />I recommend that the Board: <br /> <br />1~EMORANDUM <br /> <br />-2- <br /> <br />9/30/82 <br />
