Development and implementation of viable operating rules are among the most important aspects of decisions made in reservoir system management. Hydrologic Engineering Center's Prescriptive Reservoir Model (HEC-PRM) is used to suggest reservoir system operations optimized explicitly for quantitative statements of system operating objectives. Previous studies tested the feasibility of applying HEC-PRM to aid the System Operation Review and analyzed and compared three system operation alternatives. This study improved the model1s representation of the Columbia River system, analyzed and developed strategic operating rules for the system, and explored the application of HEC-PRM to seasonal operations.

The major theme of the May 1995 conference was the challenge facing water resource professionals to develop and implement decision-making approaches that integrate the numerous objectives and constraints in reaching balanced water management strategies. Papers cover such topics as urban drainage and stormwater; water rights and policy; watersheds and wetlands; water pollution control; water supply planning and management; economics, flood control, and risk assessment; water conservation and stochastic hydrology; information resources; and NAFTA.
