| PROJECT DESCRIPTION THE PROJECT WILL BE BROKEN INTO TWO DIFFERENT PHASES TO ENSURE FUNDING FROM THE BUREAU OF RECLAMATION CAN BE ADEQUATELY UTILIZED. PHASE I INVOLVES COLLECTING NECESSARY DATA AND CARRYING OUT FIRM YIELD ANALYSES FOR THE CITYS CURRENT WATER SUPPLY AND EVALUATING THE SUPPLY OF LAKE DURANT. WHILE RESILIENCE, AS A MEASURE OF THE ABILITY OF A SYSTEM TO RESPOND TO NEGATIVE CIRCUMSTANCES, CAN BE DIFFICULT TO QUANTIFY, MAKING USE OF FIRM YIELD STUDIES WILL ALLOW POTENTIAL WATER SUPPLY OPTIONS TO BE COMPARED IN AN OBJECTIVE AND STANDARDIZED MANNER. ULTIMATELY, THE PROJECT WILL HELP TO DETERMINE THE VIABILITY OF PERMANENTLY DRAWING SUPPLEMENTAL WATER FROM LAKE DURANT. THE INFORMATION GATHERED FROM THE EVALUATION OF THE SUPPLY OF LAKE DURANT WILL PROVIDE THE NECESSARY INFORMATION FOR PHASE II OF THE PROJECT. PHASE II OF THIS PROJECT WILL INCLUDE AN ASSESSMENT OF THE CITY OF DURANTS WATER INTAKE STRUCTURES ON THE BLUE RIVER, DEVELOPMENT OF A 3D MODEL OF LAKE DURANT, AND THE GATHERING OF BLUE RIVER IMAGERY AND WATER QUALITY DATA. PHASE II TASKS REQUIRE THAT PHASE I TASKS BE COMPLETED FOR THEIR SUBSEQUENT DEVELOPMENT. SPECIFIC PHASE I PROJECT ACTIVITIES, WHICH WILL BE CONDUCTED PRIMARILY BY AQUA STRATEGIES, ARE SUMMARIZED BELOW. | Oklahoma (Bureau of Reclamation federal awards) | CHOCTAW NATION OF OKLAHOMA | $73K | — |
