Example of a flawed water planning study:The Colorado River Compact of 1922
The Colorado River Compact of 1922 divided the use of waters of the Colorado River System between the Upper and Lower Colorado River Basin. It apportioned **in perpetuity** to the Upper and Lower Basin, respectively, the beneficial consumptive use of 7.5 million acre feet (maf) of water per annum. It also provided that the Upper Basin will not cause the flow of the river at Lee Ferry to be depleted below an aggregate of 7.5 maf for any period of ten consecutive years. The Mexican Treaty of 1944 allotted to Mexico a guaranteed annual quantity of 1.5 maf. **These amounts, when combined, exceed the river's long-term average annual flow**.

Sustainable management of PNW salmon populations will very likely have to cope with flow variability associated with both “warm and wet” and “warm and dry” scenarios at different times. Such conditions can be incorporated in planning as a test for sustainability though adverse periods, rates of recovery during favorable periods, etc.

Impact Pathways for Salmon Management and Recovery Efforts in the Columbia Basin
and Opportunities for Adaptation
![Page 32: Alan F. Hamlet Philip W. Mote Dennis P. Lettenmaier JISAO Center for Science in the Earth System Climate Impacts Group and Department of Civil and Environmental](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649d7a5503460f94a5db54/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
•The flow needed to provide acceptable flow velocity for juvenile transport is frequently higher than natural flow, particularly in late summer (I.e. use of storage is required). Climate change increases the amount of storage required to meet flow targets.
•Currently very little storage is allocated to fish in comparison with hydropower.
•In a conflict between hydro or irrigation and fish flow, the current reservoir operating policies are designed to protect hydro and irrigation (fish flow storage allocation for main stem and Snake River flow targets is at the top of a shared reservoir storage pool)
•The Columbia River Treaty does not provide explicitly for summer flow in the U.S. (transboundary issues). Compare with guaranteed winter releases associated with flood control.

Flood Control vs. Refill
Because so little storage is currently allocated to fish flows, reliability of refill is crucial to achieving acceptable levels of flow augmentation in summer.
As streamflow timing shifts move peak flows earlier in the year, flood evacuation schedules may need to be revised both to protect against early season flooding and to begin refill earlier to capture the (smaller) spring freshet.
Model experiments (see Payne et al. 2004) have shown that moving flood evacuation two weeks to one month earlier in the year helps mitigate reductions in refill reliability associated with streamflow timing shifts.

Water Temperature
Higher air temperatures and increased residence time in reservoirs due to summer streamflow reductions are likely to systematically increase water temperatures throughout the basin. In unmanaged tributaries these impacts may be difficult or impossible to mitigate. (land use)
In managed basins, stored cold water in reservoirs may be exhausted more rapidly than now, reducing the ability to mitigate high stream temperatures using releases from storage, particularly in late summer. Cold water storage at Dworshak dam is a particular concern since it is one of the few dams available to control stream temperatures in the lower Snake and is sited in a sensitive area.

Broad Strategies for Incorporating Climate Variability and Climate Change in Long-Term Planning
Identify and Assess Climate LinkagesIdentify potential linkages between climate and resource management that could affect outcomes in the long term. What’s being left out? Are there future “deal breakers” in these omissions? (e.g. ocean productivity, glaciers maintaining summer streamflow in the short term)
Design for Robustness and SustainabilityUse modeling studies to test preferred management alternatives for robustness in the face of climate variability represented by paleoclimatic studies, conventional observations, decadal variability, and future climate change projections.
Identify Limits and Increase Response CapabilityUse estimates of uncertainties or “what if” scenarios to find the performance limits inherent in preferred management alternatives. How can response capability be increased?
Expect Surprises and Design for Flexibility to Changing ConditionsDesign contingency planning into management guidelines to allow for ongoing adaptation to unexpected (or uncertain) conditions without recursive policy intervention.
