68 <br />Schedule of milestones <br />The current state of the region's water supply has taken many years to develop; it will take many years <br />to change. The timeline in Figure 31 illustrates the major milestones, and subsequent text provides <br />more detail, including key milestones from each strategy. <br />Figure 29.

Improve the predictive accuracy of the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area Groundwater Flow Model <br />Version 2.00 (Metro Model 2). <br />2.Assess local conditions in areas where this plan predicts that issues may arise should withdrawals <br />continue at projected levels and from traditional sources. <br />3. Develop a more thorough understanding of aquifer extent, capacity, and recharge, as well as <br />long-term trends in the levels of the region's surface and groundwater systems to manage future <br />water supply availability. <br />4. Develop a better understanding of the distribution of natural and manmade contaminants and <br />source water vulnerability. <br />5.Guide water supply development toward regionally optimal locations and sources. <br />6. Incorporating new information and using updated tools will improve the evaluation of new <br />pumping sources, locations, and pumping rates to determine regionally optimal withdrawal <br />scenarios. <br />WATER SUPPLY MASTER <br />PLAN- Draft June 2015 <br />
