Forecaster B will maintain the forecast office and be available for consulta- tion during the period between October 1 and November 1, 1986, and during January 9 to February 1, 1987. Forecasters wi 11 maintain continuous moni- toring of the weather situations during the intensive field season and provide updates, as necessary. B. SUSPENS ION SCpp applies suspension criteria to minimize either actual or apparent contri- butions of seeding to potentially hazardous weather situations. The ability of the SCPP to forecast and avoid seeding under hazardous conditions is very important in limiting liability associated with the project and maintaining a desirable public image. It should be emphasized that suspension of seeding activities will not prevent other investigations from continuing, providing personnel can continue to work safely. Figure 2-5a,b are the forms that will be used during the season for daily updating and documentation of conditions with respect to suspension criteria. It is important for the forecaster to provide more frequent updates to the Site Director for planning purposes. All other SCPP personnel should be alert for situations that may require suspension of operations and forward pertinent data to the Site Director as soon as possible. In that SCPP will be seeding for the first time in the November-December time frame snowpack data does not exist for determining suspension limits. Given that this is early in the season, no suspension criteria for snowpack water II-5
