<br />o <br />CJ1 <br />r.&:J <br />0) <br /> <br />and for the W season <br /> <br />26 - 14 + 12,86 ~ 24,86 <br /> <br />10 <br /> <br />are the expected flows which match the computations in the table above. <br /> <br />INTERPRETING RESULTS FROM TIllS ANALYTIC TECHNIQUE <br /> <br />From the above flow distributions the results can be generalized as <br />if the R, S, and W random variables had been continuous over the entire <br /> <br />range of possible inflows. For a reservoir of capacity 120,000 acre-feet <br />and the regulation criteria illustrated we estimate the following flow <br />conditions for the White River. <br /> <br />Season <br /> <br />Spring <br />Runoff <br /> <br />Sunnner <br /> <br />Winter <br /> <br />Flow Range Flow Range % of <br />at Watson at Green R. Time <br />20 - 48 7 - 35 61 <br />49 -110 36 - 97 39 <br />15 - 28 o - 13 73 <br />29 - 90 14 - 75 27 <br />8 - 19 1 -12 16 <br />20 - 28 13 -21 78 <br />29 - 40 22 - 33 6 <br /> <br />Mean Flow <br />Watson Green R. <br /> <br />49 <br /> <br />36 <br /> <br />28 <br /> <br />13 <br /> <br />25 <br /> <br />18 <br /> <br />A table of this type can be prepared for each reservoir size and <br />regulation criteria and each level of consumptive use. For instance, if <br />the Colorado oil shale industry used 2,000 acre-feet less per month and <br /> <br />the Utah industry, 1,000 acre-feet less per month, we could simply add 2,000 <br />acre-feet to each Watson flow above and add 3,000 acre-feet to each Green <br />River flow, The percentages stay the same. When the Utah inflows below <br />Watson are estimated they can be added to each Green River flow by season. <br />
