Watershed and Urban Hydrology Modeling Workshop California Water and Environmental Modeling Forum Secretary of State Building Auditorium, Sacramento June 22, 2007
Workshop Purpose Introduce participants to: • watershed and urban hydrology models, • the capabilities and data requirements of each model, and • how the models are used for specific applications.
Watershed/Urban Hydrology Models • Quantify runoff flow rates and WQ impacts • Calculate TMDL load allocations; • Size storm water control facilities, delineating flood plain areas, reservoir spillway design; • Evaluate storage, treatment, and other best management practices for NP source load reductions; and • Compare trade-offs of sewer extensions vs. on-site wastewater systems.
CWEMF • Mission: to increase the usefulness of models for analyzing California’s water-related problems • Provide a consensus-building atmosphere on water-related issues
CWEMF Services • Facilitate open, constructive discussion of conflicting opinions on physical, chemical, biological, and economic modeling • Conduct problem-solving workshops to address technical disagreements • Organize technical training and educational workshops
CWEMF Services, cont. • Coordinate model development, refinement, and use through interagency model user groups • Conduct impartial peer reviews of water and environmental models
