Search Contact Us! Chapter VIII: A Metropolitan Approach Bibliography support from the state governor, conflicting presidential philosophies, and in a time of budget restraint in governments at all levels. Yet it remained only an alternative. Cheney Reservoir was pushed through out of necessity, when the city was in dire need of another supply, shortages were prevalent, and other possibilities were cut off. In addition, people such as A.E. Howse worked to cut the red tape in order to implement the project. Corbin, however, was a project for the future. Wichita did not need the water immediately, but was trying to prepare for future needs. Government, with its rapid turnover among top-level officials, is generally inadequate in dealing effectively with such long-term plans. As the costs and delays increased, Wichita began to look elsewhere for alternatives with lower costs and fewer opponents. On January 23, 1980, Wichita took an important step toward finding such a solution when it filed for water rights at two existing reservoirs. The city sought 60,000 acre-feet annually (53 million gallons daily) from Milford Reservoir, near Junction City, and 50,000 acre-feet (46 million gallons daily) from Kanopolis. The applications were accepted by the Kansas Water Resources Board, which gave Wichita the right to negotiate for water when it was necessary, although it was not actually guaranteed the water. Instead, Wichita was now capable of buying water in the future, although those higher on the list would receive priority in negotiating with the state.

We gratefully acknowledge the contributions of time, information and research, and expertise of the following members of the Task Force in developing this planning guide. Members of the Kansas Goals 2000 Technology Task Force Ronald Rohrer - Task Force Leader Denise Moore - Associate Task Force Leader Contents Section Preface Task Force Mission, Vision, Objectives and Outcomes Developing a Local Technology Plan Endnotes ... Appendix D: Statewide Technology-Related Initiatives Preface How should we define technology? Technology is a process involving material and human resources. The materials most responsible for economic change in the last five years have been the computer and other microprocessor-based systems. The human resources include the use of our critical thinking skills to apply the scientific and material aspects of technology. Knowing the type of technology to apply is as important as how to apply it. For the purpose of this planning guide, the following definitions will be used: Technology is the interpretation of suitability, and the use of text-based applications; audio, video, still image, and multimedia applications; telecommunications and Internet applications; teleconferencing and videoteleconferencing applications; and virtual reality applications. These applications use microprocessor-based technology as part of higher-order systems such as, but not limited to, computers, facsimiles, telecommunications systems, multimedia, interactive two-way video, CD-ROM, laser discs, data storage, and audio/video devices. Technology is also a process that uses scientific material and human resources to achieve human goals. As such, it may include other tools developed to improve our quality of life or change our environment.
