<br />OOJ3~5 <br /> <br />points. This produces the concave shape of area capacity curves <br />between the table points. This also avoids stair steps that use <br />of many polynomial equations can cause where increasing storage <br />can produce a lower elevation. <br /> <br />MEADSHRT.DAT and MEADSURP.DAT <br /> <br />Percent Mead capacity shortage and surplus triggers. These 2 <br />files are used as shortage and surplus strategy options for <br />varying the shortage and surplus trigger for each year of <br />simulation. The maximum Mead elevation, default is 1214.5 on Jan <br />1, read from the user interface is converted to max contents at <br />the beginning of the run and all the percent capacity triggers <br />are applied to this value to give trigger elevations. <br /> <br />RESERV.DAT <br /> <br />Default starting reservoir conditions. This file is created by <br />EZ by saving the starting upper reservoir contents and Powell & <br />Mead elevations entered into the user interface. The values are <br />usually taken from Reclamation's 24-Month study projection used <br />in developing the last Annual Operating Plan. CRSS and CRSSez <br />generally are not used to project end of year storage conditions <br />for the year covered by the last Annual Operating Plan. The <br />first year to be simulated normally is for the year after that <br />covered by the Annual Operating Plan. As the 24-Month projected <br />reservoir contents for end of year storage begins to <br />significantly differ from the AOP then EZ starting conditions are <br />updated. <br /> <br />USHORT.DAT <br /> <br />Actual Upper Basin shortages generated byCRSS. Optionally, the <br />user may select to use these shortages instead of shortages <br />computed by EZ. The date of this file should be checked to <br />insure that these shortages were computed after the last change <br />noted to uses by the Upper Basin in the CONUSE.DAT file. <br />Normally, this optional file is not used. <br /> <br />18 <br />
