  3. Basin Specific Feasibility Studies Evaluation Methodology • Established planning level water quality goal of 10 ppb TP (geometric mean) • Established guidelines for technical analysis of alternatives • Established quantitative evaluation criteria (5) • Established qualitative evaluation criteria (5)

  4. Basin Specific Feasibility Studies Planning Objectives • Achieving the planning level WQ target of 10 ppb (geometric mean) in all discharges to the EPA • Avoid hydraulic bypass • Utilize the least land area possible • Maintain existing level of flood protection
