M-X Environmental Technical Report. Environmental Characteristics of Alternative Designated Areas, Water Resources.

Abstract

There will be two types of water demands associated with the M-X project. The construction of the protective shelters, the cluster roads, the designated transportation network (DTN) and the operating bases (OBs) will require relatively large quantities of water for a short period of time (2 to 5 years) or are short-term effects. Construction activities requiring water include earthwork, concrete and concrete plants, aggregate and aggregate plants, dust control, and irrigation of revegetation. Construction personnel will also require water. The demands for water will be at many points throughout the project area. Operational demands will be at the four Area Support Centers (AFSC) and the two OBs. These demands will occur for the life of the project and are considered longterm effects. (Author)
