Techniques being developed to provide decision criteria on a real-time basis for operating the five flood control reservoirs in the Merrimack River basin in central New England are described. The techniques include (a) application of alternative streamflow forecasting models, (b) application of computer program HEC-5C, Simulation of Flood Control and Conservation Systems, to develop decision-criteria for system operation on a real-time basis, and use of computer terminals to enable analysis of alternative forecast and/or decision criteria in both batch mode and interactive applications.

This technical paper presents a general overview of the Corps of Engineers' past involvements, present practices, and the future roles in dealing with alluvial fan flooding problems. The Corps' approach to alluvial fan flooding studies and the analytical methods they use to assess potential flood hazards are summarized. Selected case studies are presented. Six important issues that need to be considered as part of an effective alluvial fan management approach are presented. An extensive list of references is also included. (fr).

The methodology and difficulties in converting a large, general purpose, mainframe, batch oriented computer program (for reservoir simulation) to work effectively in the PC environment are described in this paper. A brief overview of the present capabilities of the general purpose reservoir simulation program (HEC-5), that works on mainframe and MS DOS compatible computers, is also presented. Keywords: Simulation, Personal computer, Reservior system, Flood control, Hydropower, Water supply, Computer programs, Multi-purpose, Multi-reservoir, FORTRAN. (jes).
