" 001253 '"{, CROSS MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Jack Ross Ross Bethel February 18, 1994 Briefings Article on CRDSS I have read your proposed "Briefings" article on CRDSS and am providing some comments below, Of course, SSRD is a private concern and State should have little input into what you publish. Your Words COLORADO PROGRAM RIVER COMPUTER ",State of Colorado, through the Colorado Water Conservation Board.., .. ,development of a computer program.. " ,simulate the flow of the Colorado River as it is modified by the exercise of water rights decreed on the main stem and its tributaries within Colorado, A number of proprietary models.., . , ,real time model Comments The Project is named the "Colorado River Decision Support System", The project is co-sponsored by the CWCB and the Division of Water Resources, The project, more than a computer program, is an integrated system of data and models, Included in the project will be a number a computer models including consumptive use and flow simulation models, One of our primary objectives is to develop a tool for the investigation of interstate compact and river operation issues, While the issues within Colorado are important they are initially overshadowed by the interstate issues in this project. For intrastate investigations of instream flows and other issues, the system will include river simulation models for each of the Colorado River tributaries within Colorado, While a number of proprietary river simulation models", first time the state has undertaken the development of an integrated system of water resource databases and simulation models, would prefer "sophisticated data and modeling system"
