Energy-Water-Salinity: Upper Colorado River Basin
Coal, oil shale, and uranium resource developments in the Upper Colorado River Basin are expected to consume large amounts of water that will alter both the quantity and quality of downstream flows. An evaluation of the water resource impacts from alternative energy developments will assure a continued high level of water use throughout the Colorado River. A mathematical model that simulates the salt and water exchange phase of potential fuel conversions has been developed. The analysis is based on a subbasin division of the Upper Colorado River Basin utilizing a minimum cost linear programming algorithm. Model results are presented for minimum cost energy developments, marginal value of water, and impacts of interstate water transfers.
