  6. Reports in M&I Context Oil Shale Phase II Energy Report Ag Transfer & New Supply Development Cost Estimates ATM Methods The Gap Density Memo M&I Demands to 2050 Identified Projects & Processes (IPPs) Conservation Strategy Passive Conservation Report

  7. 2050 M&I and SSI Demand

  8. M&I Gap – Low Scenario

  9. M&I Gap – Medium Scenario

  10. M&I Gap – High Scenario

  11. Addressing the M&I Gap

  12. 2050 Changes in Irrigated Acres 18,000acres 66,000 acres 180,000 to 267,000 acres 51,000 acres 77,000 acres 21,000 to 28,000 acres 35,000 to 73,000 acres 83,000 to 7,000 to 84,000 acres 13,000 acres Statewide Total: 504,000 to 718,00 acres 15 to 20 percent

  13. Reports in the M&I Context ATM Methods Presumptive Consumptive Use Ability to transfer part of CU Ditch-wide analysis Oil Shale Phase II Energy Report Build-out: 0, 59, 120 KAF 2050 Range: 0, 7.2, 44 KAF Ag Transfer & New Supply Development Cost Estimates Life Cycle Costs: Ag $16 B-$24 B New $16 B-$19 B The Gap 150 KAF to 580KAF 27-37% w/ IPPs @ 100% Success New M&I Demands to 2050 2050 Baseline Demands: 745 KAF to 1.1 MAF Density Memo 10% off new metro supplies (35 KAF). Generally x % denser = x/2% water savings IPPs 439 KAF to 596KAF • Other Needs: • Nonconsumpitive: • 700+ Projects & Methods • Mapping finalized for whole state • Agricultural Needs: • 2050 Ag Demands: • 5.6 MAF (15 to 20 % decrease in irrigated acres) Conservation Strategy 157 KAF - 522 KAF Passive Conservation Report 154 KAF

  14. Funding $$$$

  15. Financing/ Water Project Loans • Low Interest Loans for Water Projects (2.75% for ag) • Rehabilitation • Dam Safety Restrictions • New or Increased Storage • Purchase of Water Rights • 424 Project Authorized Since 1971 • $704M in Loan Funds Approved To-date • 50 Projects in Design/Const. - $331M

  16. CWCB’s Funds $0 Construction Fund & General Fund $ Severance Tax Trust Fund Perpetual Base Account CWCB is Self-Supporting

  17. CWCB REVOLVING FUNDS • Construction Fund – Principal & Interest from Loans, Treasury Interest & Federal Mineral Lease. • Severance Tax Perp. Base Fund Principal & Interest from Loans, Treasury Interest, and 25% of all Severance Tax.

  18. Legislative Cash Transfers $130M transferred FY09/10

  19. Program Impacts - CWCB • No New Loans 2010, 2011, - ? • No New Statewide or Basin Grants • No New Studies • Compact Compliance • Limited Resources for Satellite Monitor and Stream Gauge Monitoring and Decision Support System

  20. Program Impacts – (SEO) • Stream Gauge Monitoring Program at Risk • Reduced SEO Funding Levels: • 2,900 Dams/Reservoir – 1,904 Jurisdictional • 118,000 AF of Restricted Storage Statewide • 243 SWSP’s reviewed 2008 • 5,600 Well Permit Applications Reviewed • 1,174 Small/Large Capacity Well Permits Issue • Adm. of 14M AF of Annual Surface Diversions

  21. Other Funding Options • Water and Power Development Authority • USDA Rural Development • Natural Resources Conservation Service • Department of Local Affairs • Federal Projects

  22. Summary • Water shortage is not just a 2030/50 Issue • Conservation, Re-use, Alt. Transfer Methods • Additional Storage • Rehabilitation of Existing Infrastructure • Funding and Impacts • Get Involved
