Evaluation of models and procedures used for river operations and planning of the Snake River Basin in southern and southeastern Idaho. Research technical completion report. Project A071-IDA Item Info
![The planning models and procedures used by operational agencies in the Upper Snake and Boise River basins in Idaho were investigated. [...] The models and procedures are used to predict runoff from snow pack data, to predict natural stream flows based on various hydrologic data, to predict reservoir levels necessary to meet flood control and refill criteria, to account for water diversions from rivers, and to evaluate the effects of alternative future demands on the surface and ground water in a hydrologic basin. Most of the models and procedures used are computerized, but some of them are still operated by hand. In most cases, there are no published references related to the procedures and models, or if they exist, they are published only for in-house purposes. Those in-house reports can be obtained by any interested person from each public agency.
