Possible future management alternatives <br />? <br />User interface needs <br />? <br />Analytical tools currently used in decision-making <br />? <br />The results of the interviews will then be incorporated into the final reports on legal requirements and <br />performance measures. <br />Step 5: Determining Information and Data Needs <br />The legal requirements and performance measures, along with the physical system itself, will define the <br />data requirements for the system of analytical tools. Recommendations as to the sources of the data <br />required will be developed and submitted to the TAC and PAC in the form of a working paper. Where <br />data is not currently available or credible, recommendations for additional data development will be <br />submitted. <br />Where data is needed but does not exist or is not sufficiently credible, the research work required to <br />develop the data will be identified. In addition, the appropriate assumptions to be made for analysis that <br />must be done in the interim will also be distinguished. A comprehensive list of generic types of <br />alternative management strategies that will need to be evaluated will also be prepared. Reports on data <br />and alternatives will provide the TAC and then the PAC a working document to discuss and eventually <br />agree upon. <br />Step 6: Developing Analytical Tools <br />Finally, recommendations on the description and development of the kinds of tools needed to analyze <br />management alternatives will be developed and submitted to the TAC and PAC. The analytical tools, <br />that could include the adoption or modification of existing tools are identified in terms of the legal <br />requirements and performance measures. The tools will use currently available data, as well as other <br />data that will need to be developed. <br />The final report will include the information needs a nd analytical tools required to satisfy the CVPIA. <br />These needs include the tools necessary to develop and/or evaluate the following: <br />A comprehensive water budget of surface and ground water supplies considering all sources of <br />? <br />inflow and outflow available over extended periods <br />The quantity and reliability of water deliveries to all classes of water users <br />? <br />Measures needed to restore anadromous fisheries to optimum and sustainable levels in <br />? <br />accordance with the restored carrying capacities of Central Valley rivers, streams, and riparian <br />habitats <br />Measures to enhance the firm yield of existing CVP facilities, including improved management <br />? <br />and operations, conjunctive use opportunities, development of offstream storage, levee <br />setbacks, and riparian restoration <br />Water quality conditions and improvement alternatives, including improved temperature <br />? <br />prediction capabilities as they relate to storage and flows <br />Generation of firm and non-firm electric power <br />? <br />Surface-ground and stream-wetland interactions and their impacts on hydrology and <br />? <br />environment <br />Economic impacts of water management alternatives, including the impacts on agricultural <br />? <br />yields and arm viability <br />6 <br />A275 01.09.95 1-19.2 Sheer <br />
