11 <br />Triangle Regional Water Supply Plan — Executive Summary <br />• Declining source yields due to issues such as hydrologic variability (from climate and /or land use <br />impacts), faster than assumed sedimentation of reservoirs or changes in required downstream <br />releases. <br />What are the Partnership's Next Steps? <br />Consistent with the TRWSP and Table 1, those Partners who use or plan to use Jordan Lake submitted <br />draft allocation requests to DWR on May 1, 2014; final applications will be submitted later in 2014 and <br />the JLP will continue to coordinate with DWR on the allocation process and development of the Cape <br />Fear Basin Water Supply Plan. <br />The Partners are developing a regional water distribution system computer model that will be used to <br />evaluate system interconnection capacities and performance under different demand scenarios, with <br />the goal of identifying joint projects to increase reliability for all customers and optimize water supplies <br />during times of water shortage. <br />Several of the Partners have begun planning for the design and development of a new intake, water <br />treatment plant and transmission facilities on the western side of Jordan Lake. Working together to <br />build new infrastructure minimizes environmental impacts, and decreases both capital and operational <br />costs due to economies of scale. A new intake and treatment plant at Jordan Lake, along with major <br />interconnections between systems, would also provide redundancy in the event the existing Cary -Apex <br />intake had to be taken offline for any reason. <br />The Partners will continue to work together toward successful implementation of the TRWSP, and to <br />look for areas where they can improve the region's ability to address water supply needs and effectively <br />prepare for and respond to water shortage conditions through cooperation and preparation. <br />7 <br />
