Credibility Mode

Current mode: verified facts. Scenario economics stay visible, but every speculative number is labeled as modeled.

Step 3

Generate ask

Pilot scope is capped at 12 stops. Larger district buildout belongs in the roadmap, not the first ask.

Pitch ReadinessChecking

Copies facts separately from assumptions so the pitch cannot overclaim.

Plain-English Readout

Recommended ask

Approve a small 90-day FallsGuide pilot, not a citywide AI system.

Why this is credible

Verified hydro facts are separated from modeled visitor and budget assumptions.

What to say out loud

This is not plant telemetry, not survey GIS, and not a claim that Paterson controls hydro dispatch.

Live flow uses USGS 01389500 at Little Falls as a nearby Passaic River surrogate. It is not direct plant telemetry or turbine intake flow.

Assumption Ledger

Hydro facts Sourced

10.95 MW capacity; 3 Kaplan turbines; 710 cfs each; FERC P-2814.

Hydro estimate Assumed

Uses editable net head and efficiency; not plant telemetry.

Visitor economics Modeled

Adoption, spend capture, and referrals are scenario assumptions.

Pilot budget Placeholder

Needs vendor quotes before it becomes a budget.

Evidence Stack

NPS hydro facts10.95 MW peak, 3 Kaplan turbines, 710 cfs each, 8.5 ft penstocks, 400 rpm. FERC statusProject P-2814; City of Paterson and Great Falls Hydroelectric Company are co-licensees. Economic fitNJEDA UIF supports corridor revitalization, reuse studies, public spaces, and foot traffic. Live flow inputUSGS instantaneous streamflow and gage height for Passaic River at Little Falls.

Evidence rule: sourced facts, user-entered assumptions, and modeled outputs are separated. Hydro output uses P = ρgQHη and is capped at the 10.95 MW licensed plant capacity, but it is still an estimate, not operational telemetry.
