Reservoir Feasibility Study<o:p></o:p></B></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><B><o:p> </o:p></B></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><B>November 30, 2011 (Moscow,
Idaho) –<A name=OLE_LINK4></A><A name=OLE_LINK3></A> </B>The Moscow City Council
will hold a workshop in the City Council Chambers in City Hall to discuss the
findings of the recently completed Surface Water Reservoir Feasibility Study on
December 2, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The workshop is free and open to the
public.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal>The Surface Water Reservoir
Feasibility Study was performed by TerraGraphics Environmental Engineering, SPF
Water Engineering, and URS Corporation. The workshop will be
facilitated by consultants Susan Firor of TerraGraphics and Christian Petrich of
SPF. At the workshop, a summary review of the completed study will be
provided and discussion held on whether the City of Moscow should continue
studying the concept of a Surface Water Reservoir and, if so, how to
proceed. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal>The study identifies options
including a wide range of reservoir sizes, watershed capacity, locations, and
potential use of the water collected. If the Council decides to continue
with the next phase of the study it will likely include a detailed assessment of
the feasibility of selected watersheds and reservoir sites through the
performance of detailed hydrologic studies, and review of water rights and land
ownership, consideration of the geology of the proposed sites for dams and
reservoirs, potential permitting requirements, and other related
issues.<o:p></o:p></P>
