Non-Snake River diversions and perched river seepage. Technical report 06-003. Water budget design document number DDW-024 draft as-built Item Info

Design documents are a series of technical papers addressing specific design topics on the eastern Snake River Plain Aquifer Model upgrade. Each design document will contain the following information: topic of the design document, how that topic fits into the whole project, which design alternatives were considered and which design alternative is proposed. In draft form, design documents are used to present proposed designs to reviewers. Reviewers are encouraged to submit suggested alternatives and comments to the design document. Reviewers include all members of the Eastern Snake Hydrologic Modeling (ESHM) Committee as well as selected experts outside of the committee. The design document author will consider all suggestions from reviewers, update the draft design document, and submit the design document to the SRPAM Model Upgrade Program Manager. The Program Manager will make a final decision regarding the technical design of the described component. The author will modify the design document and publish the document in its final form in .pdf format on the SRPAM Model Upgrade web site. Final model documentation will include all of the design documents, edited to ensure that the "as-built" condition is appropriately represented. This document is the as-built document for diversions and perched river seepage for rivers other than the Snake River. This design document describes diversion and return data and perchedriver seepage for streams and rivers other than the Snake River. It is acknowledged that some reaches of some streams may be hydraulically connected with the aquifer. Because data were limited and because the purpose of this model was to represent regional interaction between the Snake River and the aquifer, all non-Snake streams and rivers are represented using headindependent perched seepage. This simplification applied the correct flux for model calibration, but in use of the model, ground-water/surface-water interactions for these water bodies will not be simulated. Diversion and return data and estimates for these streams and for the Snake River are incorporated in the diversion spreadsheet, which generates input files for the GIS Recharge Tool. Perched river seepage is represented in a GIS line data set and a data table, which are also inputs to the GIS Recharge Tool. Diversions from the Snake River are represented by data from Idaho Department of Water Resources, as reported in Design Document DDW-012 (Gilliland 2002). Interaction between the Snake River and the aquifer are discussed in Design Documents DDM-007 (Wylie, in review), DDM-010 (Wylie, in review) and DDM-017 (Johnson, in review). DRAFT.
