<br />15 <br /> <br /> <br />, <br />.L:J.. <br /> <br />WATER MANAGEMENT TECHNICAL SUBCOMMITTEE <br />ANNUAL REPORT <br />JULY 1, 1974 - JUNE 30, 1975 <br /> <br />Three meetings of the subcommittee were held during the year, each <br />on the day preceding the meetings of the parent coml!\ittee. Chairman <br />Krous attended meetings of the Executive Subcommittee in San Francisco <br />on September 30, 1974, and May 15, 1975. <br /> <br />One of the main activities for the year was reporting on tasks listed <br />in the Executive Subcommittee's "Report on Basic Needs Concerning <br />Water Supply of the Colorado River" under the headings "Information <br />Needed" and "Capacity to Obtain Basic Data." No formal task force <br />was set up, but assignments were made to members of the subcommittee. <br />The information obtained, or their comments, were given to the <br />Chairman of the Executive Subcommittee. <br /> <br />Two task forces were active during the year. Dr. H. B. Osborn of the <br />Agriculture Research Service, Tucson, Arizona is heading a task force <br />that will prepare a report on the state of the art of weather modifi- <br />cation. They have been reviewing literature and consulting with <br />experts, but the inability to hold meetings due to travel restrictions <br />prevented completion of the report this year. <br /> <br />The River Milage Task Force, chaired by Howard F. Matthai, reported <br />that no neW milage indexes were published this year. Work is pro- <br />gressing on indexes for the Great Basin in Utah, the Lower Colorado <br />main stem and selected minor tributaries, and the State of California. <br />No progress has been made on several basins, and unless additional <br />help is volunteered, the subcommittee will be unable to complete this <br />assignment. <br /> <br />A list of the many publications of the PSIAC Water Management <br />Subcommittee was compiled by Kenneth G. Renard. <br />
