<br />R <br />h" <br />~IP <br /> <br />and the Colorado Water Conservation Board. <br /> <br />Potential plans to fulfill the needs of each area of <br /> <br />the state should be devemoped. Water deficient areas should be <br /> <br />defined. Proposed plans of federal. state and local agencies, <br /> <br />and private concerns and industries should be evaluated in terms <br /> <br />of the aforementioned objectives. and if appropt~ate. should be <br /> <br />included. <br />~lternative <br /> <br />Plans <br /> <br />The foreseeable available water supplies within the <br /> <br />state will not be sufficient to meet the long-range requirements. <br /> <br />Therefore. the plan formulation should evaluate desirable alterna- <br /> <br />tives and measure the prospects for augmentation of the available <br /> <br />water supplies. Supplemental sources to be considered include <br /> <br />weather modification. reuse and recycling. watershed management. <br /> <br />geothermal and desalting brackish water. <br /> <br />Coordination and Orqanization <br /> <br />Coordination among interested state and federal agencies <br /> <br />and local groups is very important to the orderly accomplishment <br /> <br />of the study. An Executive Committee. composed of a representative <br /> <br />of the Bureau of Reclamation, Region 7. and a member of the Colo- <br /> <br />rado Water Conservation Board has been established to provide <br /> <br />direction and coordination of activities involved in preparation <br /> <br />of the Colorado State Water Plan.
