Needs Identification

Warnings and Disclaimers• This kind of planning has been made overly complicated and technical (probably

to ensure future work for consultants).

• These types of plans are designed to “sync” with regional water plans (which are also overly complicated and technical).

• This kind of planning is the primary statutory purpose of river authorities (it’s why we were created to begin with).

• These plans are designed to identify projects that anyone can implement (not so that river authorities can take over the world).

Preliminary Results DiscussionDemands, supplies, and needs

Demand Projections

• Non-Municipal Demands• Irrigation (Golf Courses, Agricultural)• Industrial• Steam Electric Power • Mining

Demand Scenarios Summary

• Two demand alternatives selected for Highlands System

• Three demand alternatives selected for Montgomery County System

• serves only current GRP

SuppliesSupply scenario evaluation

Supply Evaluation

• Existing supplies based on SJRA permits

• Reliability of supplies is maximum amount produced during a repeat of drought of record

• Availability of supplies determined using TCEQ Water Availability Models (WAMs)

Supply Evaluation

• WAM availability estimation• Annual output• Monthly output

• Monthly needs analysis using operations model• Determine needs based on operational and infrastructure constraints
