Reservoir management

Understand the seasonal water supply outlook for a basin; monitor high flow events up to 10 days out.

  • Ensure a reliable supply of water for communities and ecosystems
  • Balance the needs of municipal uses, agriculture, and energy production
  • Price and plan for wholesale distribution
  • Inform seasonal drawdowns – timing and levels
  • Predict the timing and impact of droughts and floods 
  • Activate water use restrictions during times of drought
  • Schedule construction and maintenance work during periods of low flow
