4.1.2 Supply-Side Options<br />
TOR Requirement<br />
1. IRP process will identify appropriate and practical<br />
supply-side options that may include methods and<br />
technologies to reduce water production <strong>volume</strong>s,<br />
wastewater overflows, manage flood levels,<br />
strengthen standards for system expansion, and<br />
manage power consumption.<br />
2. IRP process will identify regulatory constraints,<br />
environmental impacts, and both capital and<br />
operating costs associated with each set of supplyside<br />
options.<br />

Sections 3 and 5 as well as Volume 1 Appendix F, Volume 3 Appendices A, B and C and the<br />
RWWFP present the analysis of supply-side options and costs. The financial model for the<br />
Recommended Plan is presented in Volume 1 Appendix H. It provides both capital and new<br />
O&M costs for the supply-side options.<br />
