Other suspension criteria will be evoked to protect <br />against short-term extremes in snowpack. <br /> <br />Suspension criteria to be used during the 1986-87 season include: <br />Excess snowpack accumulation (January only) <br />Rain-induced winter flooding <br />Severe weather <br />Other special circumstances <br />Specific details of these criteria are given in Appendix A. <br /> <br />C. EXPERIMENTAL UNIT RECOGNITION, DECLARATION, AND PREDICTABILITY <br />Development and refinement of procedures to predict and declare experimental <br />units for the ground seeding experiments and Kingvale/downwind target studies <br />will be pursued by the forecasting contractor on a continuing basis. <br /> <br />Ground seeding operations will be conducted whenever cloud and wind conditions <br />will allow ground released AgI to reach cloud and directionally target the <br />proposed ground seedi ng target area. Criteri a for thi s are shown in Table <br />2-1. It is not anticipated that AgI will become active at sufficient concen- <br />trations until reaching the -60C level, and then only if sufficient liquid <br />water is available. Since forecasting these situations in advance is diffi- <br />cult only the criteria shown in Table 2-1 will be used. <br /> <br />Table 2-1. Ground generator seeding criteria <br /> <br />1.
