County/Counties Pitkin, Eagle, Garfield, and Gunnison Latitude Longitude WSRF Grant Application 4 Last Update: August 3, 2017 Water Activity Overview Please provide a summary of the proposed water activity (200 words or less). Include a description of the activity and what the WSRF funding will be used for specifically (e.g. studies, permitting, construction). Provide a description of the water supply source to be utilized or the water body affected by the activity. Include details such as acres under irrigation, types of crops irrigated, number of residential and commercial taps, length of ditch improvements, length of pipe installed, area of habitat improvements. If this project addresses multiple purposes or spans multiple basins, please explain. The Applicant shall also provide, in Exhibit A, a detailed Statement of Work, Budget, and Schedule. This project will create a web-based interactive map and information system for the Roaring Fork Watershed that builds upon the digital database and map generated in Tasks 2 and 3 of the IWMP Framework Project, also sponsored by the Colorado River Basin Roundtable. It will include information specific to the Roaring Fork Watershed with the addition of data that identifies and provides background for the specific action items detailed in the Roaring Fork Watershed Plan Update. The purpose of this project is to create a place to house information about the Roaring Fork Watershed that is easy to access and filter so that every user, from grade school students to the seasoned-scientist, can peruse research and recommended actions regarding a particular stretch of river, sub-basin, or watershed-wide. Displayed information will include: watershed locations linked to technical, hydrologic and geophysical data; documented issues; areas of concern; and recommended projects. WSRF funds will be used to create the web-based interactive information system and to gather preferences from stakeholders and the public about information to be shared. This interactive information system will facilitate a better understanding of watershed dynamics and renewed momentum towards implementation of projects recommended by the Roaring Fork Watershed Plan. Measurable Results To catalog measurable results achieved with WSRF funds please provide any of the following values. New Storage Created (acre-feet) New Annual Water Supplies Developed or Conserved (acre-feet), Consumptive or Nonconsumptive Existing Storage Preserved or Enhanced (acre-feet) Length of Stream Restored or Protected (linear feet) Efficiency Savings (indicate acre-feet/year OR dollars/year) Area of Restored or Preserved Habitat (acres) Length of Pipe/Canal Built or Improved X Other Explain: Over 200 recommended actions displayed on one map/system. WSRF Grant Application 5 Last Update: August 3, 2017 Water Activity Justification Provide a description of how this water activity supports the goals of Colorado’s Water Plan, the most recent Statewide Water Supply Initiative, and the respective Roundtable Basin Implementation Plan and Education Action Plan (1). The Applicant is required to reference specific needs, goals, themes, or Identified Projects and Processes (IPPs), including citations (e.g. document, chapters, sections, or page numbers). For applications that include a request for funds from the Statewide Account, the proposed water activity shall be evaluated based upon how well the proposal conforms to Colorado’s Water Plan criteria for state support (CWP, Section 9.4, pp. 9-43 to 9-44;) (Also listed pp. 4-5 in 2016 WSRF Criteria and Guidelines). Implementation of the Roaring Fork Watershed Plan (RFWP) is one of the top three priority projects identified in the Colorado River Basin Roundtable (CBRT) Basin Implementation Plan (BIP) for the Roaring Fork Subbasin (Section 4, page 132, Table 18), and therefore is also a high priority of the Colorado Water Plan. There are over 200 action items within the RFWP that, if implemented, could accomplish many goals within each of the six themes of the BIP and the Colorado Water Plan. However, currently, those action items are only uncovered and understood if one decides to read the Roaring Fork Watershed Plan, a 145-page document and associated 250 item spreadsheet accessed through a link on the Roaring Fork Conservancy’s website. The outcome of this project would place those action items at the forefront of thought as one peruses an interactive map of the Roaring Fork Watershed. For instance, if a fly-fisherman wondered where native cutthroat trout populations exist in the Roaring Fork Watershed, they could find it on this map. And they would also notice that a project was done in 2012 by Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the United States Forest Service to protect that particular population of native cutthroat trout. And if they were interested in other populations at risk in the area and what projects are proposed to restore and protect those populations, they could see that too. All in one glance, essentially. Section 2.3 of the BIP, the CRBT Public Outreach Action Plan, states that… “the Roundtable will explore opportunities to connect with a broader segment of the population through new initiatives…” This project, building upon what the CRBT is already supporting with the Integrated Water Management Plan, is an innovative and creative solution to putting important and useful information in front of those members of the public that might otherwise not see it, and hopefully, connecting the dots in a way that makes action easy to recognize and initiate. In addition to facilitating a top BIP priority, this project offers considerable benefits to the water community including:  Regional Application– This project’s goal is to display information and projects that reach from the top of Independence Pass to the confluence of the Roaring Fork River with the Colorado River in Glenwood Springs. The interactive map will cover a large portion of the Colorado River basin’s geography and population. There are four counties (Pitkin, Eagle, Garfield, and Gunnison), five municipalities (Aspen, Snowmass, Basalt, Carbondale, and Glenwood Springs), and several other private and public water providers in the watershed.  Diverse Support – This project has received preliminary support from a steering committee for the Roaring Fork Watershed Plan Update that includes staff representatives from the region’s counties, as well as the Ruedi Water and Power Authority (RWAPA) Board that includes elected officials from the region’s major counties and municipalities.  Replicability – Other watersheds within the Colorado River Basin could use this project as a WSRF Grant Application 6 Last Update: August 3, 2017  Water Activity Justification template for creating their own basin-specific, interactive visualization tool to display information gathered through watershed assessments or watershed plans. Initiates and facilitates further action – By visually referencing and pre-sorting past projects and future project ideas, the jurisdiction, potential partners, project examples, and project need becomes more apparent to the user without requiring research.
