<br />X. Recommendations <br />The Coordination Committee has the following recommendations for future years: <br />A. Conduct coordinated reservoir operations again in 1998 pursuant to the schedule outlined. <br />B. Work with the NWS Colorado River Basin Forecast Center to improve peak runoff forecasting. <br />C. Coordinate with appropriate parties on river administration and accounting issues. <br />D. Work with the state of Colorado and NWS to identify high flow levels and locations potentially <br />flooded or adversely affected by CROS. <br />E. Work with the state of Colorado and NWS to resolve differing flood stage levels or <br />determinations at stream gages. <br />F. Obtain aerial photography downstream of all participating reservoirs and in the 15-Mile <br />Reach to determine "pinch points" on the system when out-of-bank flooding is close to <br />occurring and document the benefits of peak flows to critical habitat. <br />G. Continually strive to improve communication and coordination. <br />H. Develop a method used by all reservoir operators for calculating the amount of water <br />bypassed during Coordinated Reservoir Operations, and for defining operations absent <br />any Coordinated Reservoir Operations. <br />1 <br />I <br />1 <br /> <br />n <br /> <br /> <br />21
