Okla State Agency	Water Resources Board, Oklahoma
Okla Agency Code	'835'
Title	Water conveyance issues & recommendations
Alternative title	Water transfer & conveyance study report; Water conveyance issues and recommendations
Authors	Oklahoma Water Resources Board. C.H. Guernsey and Company.
Publisher	Oklahoma Water Resources Board
Publication Date	2011
Publication type	Planning Document Research Report/Study
Subject	Water-supply engineering--Oklahoma. Water transfer--Oklahoma. Water resources development--Oklahoma--Planning.
Purpose	This study was commissioned by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) as a part of the Oklahoma Comprehensive Water Plan (OCWP) to reexamine and update the existing infrastructure plan for the transference of water from approximately the eastern portion of the state to the west. This plan was originally detailed in the 1980 Water Plan and contemplated source waters primarily from eastern and southeastern Oklahoma. This particular study updated costs and examined alternative realignments and source water supplies, including Lake Texoma, Lake Eufaula and the Arkansas River system, and Kaw Lake and developed potential alignments, cost estimates, infrastructure needs and feasibility of each alternative. The OWRB does not formally propose the construction of these projects, but rather presents the results of this study to update the 1980 cross-state conveyance plan and provide an evaluation of potential alternatives to the public, policy makers and water users in Oklahoma.; OWRB updated the 1980 Plan in 1995, and is currently going through the process of producing the 2011 Update to the Oklahoma Comprehensive Water Plan (2011 Plan). Since publication of the 1980 Plan, Oklahoma City, and other communities in central Oklahoma, have made efforts to obtain additional water resources from southeastern Oklahoma. This effort was recently realized when OWRB approved the transfer of water storage rights from Sardis Lake to Oklahoma City to help satisfy the long-term water supply needs of central Oklahoma. Due to the above-mentioned effort, OWRB decided that as part of the 2011 Plan, the proposed water conveyance systems no longer have the requirement to convey water to central Oklahoma, and the systems proposed in the 1980 Plan require re-evaluation. OWRB selected C. H. Guernsey & Company (GUERNSEY) to re-evaluate and revise the statewide water transfer system for the 2011 Plan.
