<br />Scoping Summary Report <br /> <br />Modeling <br /> <br />The computer simulation model being used to determine impacts of the proposed project on the <br />mainstem of the Colorado River in the Lower Basin is based upon the commercial river <br />modeling software RiverWare. The model has been configured to simulate the Colorado River <br />System and its operation, based upon the Colorado River Simulation System model that was <br />modified to include current rules and policies. The model's operation parameters to be <br />simulated and analyzed include the water entering the river system, storage in system <br />reservoirs, releases from storage, river flows, and the water demand of, and deliveries to, the <br />Basin States and Mexico. The EIS will provide an extended description of RiverWare and the <br />modeling efforts. <br /> <br />3.3 SCHEDULE FOR NEP A PROCESS <br /> <br />Reclamation is proceeding to conduct the technical studies necessary to complete the analysis <br />for the proposed action and alternatives, as revised as a result of the scoping process. <br />Reclamation anticipates a draft EIS will be available for public review and comment in <br />December 2001. Reclamation will publish a Notice of Availabili of the Draft ElS in the Federal <br />Re5!istCL, The Draft ElS will also e sent to individuals and entities on the mailing list'.
