<br />1 Mountains, up to how much of a per cent? <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />If I recall correctly.. just for a comparison, <br /> <br />A <br /> <br />3 which I think is reasonably fresh in most people's memories, <br /> <br />4 the snowpack for last year ranged between two and three hun- <br /> <br />5 dred per cent of normal in a good portion of this area, so <br /> <br />8 l25 per cent of normal will be substantially less than what <br /> <br />1 you can recall from last year. <br /> <br />8 <br /> <br />And that is what this project is designed for, <br /> <br />Q <br /> <br />9 and the advisory committee, with regard to when it reaches <br /> <br />10 l25 per cent of normal, there will be a decision with regard <br /> <br />11 to whether or not there is going to be any seeding or not. <br /> <br />12 <br /> <br />A <br /> <br />That'.s correct. <br /> <br />13 <br /> <br />Q <br /> <br />Seeding will be cut off, is that correct? <br /> <br />14 <br /> <br />A <br /> <br />That's correct. The second step is that seeding <br /> <br />15 operations will be suspended during storm periods forecast <br /> <br />18 <br /> <br />,1 <br />~' <br />; , <br />,t ,,~ <br /> <br />to produce unusually heavy snow precipi~ation which could <br /> <br />17 <br /> <br />possibly contribute td the occurrence of avalanches within <br /> <br />18 <br /> <br />the project Area, or extremely adverse or severe weather <br /> <br />19 <br /> <br />conditions. <br /> <br />20 <br /> <br />4< <br /> <br />Another step was that a committee. be selectell <br /> <br />21 <br /> <br />from the basin area representing various sectors around the <br /> <br />22 <br /> <br />project Area, which these representatives could monitor exist <br /> <br />23 <br /> <br />ing conditions of weather and snowpack; and, if conditions <br /> <br />24 <br /> <br />became adverse or extremely adverse, they could convene as <br /> <br />2S <br /> <br />a group, make a recommendation that seeding operations be <br /> <br />-24- <br />
