Abstract

This technical memorandum discusses the procedures used to create a list of potential future projects that would utilize the water resources in the Snake/Salt River basin. This list represents the needs and desires of those in the basin, and provides a starting point for additional beneficial uses in the future. A long list of potential projects was first developed with input from the Basin Advisory Group (BAG), along with a review of existing studies. This list was then reduced and evaluated with respect to various criteria, resulting in a short list of potential projects which can be compared to one another within a given use category.
