 Abstract
 
Evaluation of Central Utah Project Water Supply Variability and Forecasting of Future Conditions
Steve Thurin, Senior Water Resources Engineering, HDR Engineering; Ted Shannon, Water Resources Engineer, HDR Engineering; Cort Lambson, Project Manager, Central Utah Water Conservancy District
The Central Utah Water Conservancy District (“District”) operates reservoirs, transbasin diversion tunnels, and collection systems of the Central Utah Project. The District is concerned with the impact that future potential adverse hydrological scenarios may have on water supply. In addition to runoff potential and timing, the Central Utah Project is reliant on several transbasin diversions and water right exchanges and conversions which may be impacted by hydrological conditions that are more variable than those observed in the last 50 years. HDR Engineering is developing a RiverWare model of the Central Utah system and its water rights that will allow forecasting of operations under several scenarios of adverse conditions, including: downscaled global circulation model climate scenarios, re-sampled paleohydrologic data, and re-sampled historical data.
