<br />. <br /> <br />1. INTRODUCTION <br />This operations plan describes the Texas HIPLEX field progrmn for <br />the summer of 1978, and the activities of each organization participating <br />in the program. This plan contains only the operations aspects of the <br />field program which includes the processing and documentation of most <br />data collected. A separate plan will be prepared later for the analysis <br />of the data. <br />Participants in the 1978 Texas HIPLEX field program include: <br />Bureau of Reclamation (BuRec) <br />Texas Department of Water Resources (TDWR) <br />Colorado River Municipal IlJater District (CRMWD) <br />Texas A&M University (T~J) <br />Texas Tech University (TTU) <br />Meteorology Research, Incorporated (MRI) <br />Colorado International Corporation (CIC) <br />The participation of each of these organizations in the 1978 Texas HIPLEX <br />field program is described in this operations plan. <br />The 1978 Texas HIPLEX field program will begin May 15 and end August <br />15, 1978. Cloud seeding will be accomplished during June and July with <br />emphasis placed on June when the Lear Jet, provided by Colorado Inter- <br />national Corporation (CIC), will be available for on-top seeding. During <br />July a Navajo airplane provided by CRMWD will be used for on-top <:loud <br />seeding. In addition to the jet seeder, several important changes have <br />been made in the field program of 1978 compared to the previous b10 summers. <br />These include an extension of the network of special surface stations, the <br />use of a Navajo aircraft for on-top cloud seeding, and documentation of <br />data collected. <br />Nothing in this operations work plan supercedes the existing <br />contractural agreements between the Bureau of Reclamation and Meteorology <br />Research, Incorporated (MRI), and Colorado International Corporation (CIC) <br />for their aircraft operations. <br /> <br />II <br /> <br /><i <br /> <br />II <br /> <br />;;; <br />
