This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of the California Urban Water Conservation Council (CUWCC) and the project purpose that includes:
estimate the dollar value of the environmental
benefits of reduced consumption of "raw
water";
build a spreadsheet model to be used by water
utilities;
theoretically sound and practical to use by
small and large water utilities in California;
express Environmental Benefits as a
component of avoided cost calculation; and,
interact with Avoided Cost model. Project background included:
Council Signatories agree to implement all
Best Management Practices that are locally
cost-effective;
cost effective means the present value of
expected benefits exceeds the present value of
project costs; and,
quantify Environmental Benefits within the
Context of the Council's MOU. Decision criteria logic is presented, along with the methodology, unit ecological impacts, fish-flow relationship, major findings, and next step. Includes figures.
