4 Basin Overview

5 Approach

6 Goal Themes A. Balance All Needs and Reduce Conflict B. Maintain Agricultural Water Needs C. Meet Municipal and Industrial Water Needs D. Meet Recreational Water Needs E. Meet Environmental Water Needs F. Preserve Water Quality G. Comply with CO River Compact & Manage Risk

7 Measureable Outcomes

8 Constraints and Opportunities

9 Identified Projects and Processes

10  Water sources  Hydropower on existing canals  Geothermal use  Habitat restoration  In Stream Flow proposals  Education  Recreational Education and/or Access  Storage  Ag Diversions and Fish Passage  Efficiencies for delivery systems

11 Strategies: Funding  Great potential to leverage WSRA funds with other sources (NRCS, SWCD, private)  “Bundling” projects  Recommendations:  WSRA funds should not be use it or lose it  Dedicated funding sources  grass buy back  agricultural efficiencies  local water quality monitoring efforts  recreational/ environmental data needs

12 Strategies: Education and Partnerships  Education and outreach for water conservation and reuse, agricultural water sharing, recreational uses, water quality and watershed health  Continue collaboration around multi-purpose projects  Coordinate with Tribal partners to support implementation of the Tribal Settlement

13 Strategies: Address Data Needs  Evaluate Environmental and Recreational gaps  Initiate collaborative effort to develop innovative tools to address gaps  Needs of non-public water supply systems  Industrial water use and need  Correct and Update SWSI 2010 attribute map
