Addendum Yakima River Basin Study. Volume 1: Proposed Integrated Water Resource Management.

摘要

This report is being prepared as an Addendum to the Yakima River Basin Study, Volume 1: Proposed Integrated Water Resource Management Plan (Integrated Plan) and is organized according to the requirements outlined in Section 9503(b). Volume 2 of the Yakima River Basin Study includes technical appendices. Information for this Addendum was largely obtained from the Integrated Plan and its appendices and is being prepared to document reporting requirements in Section 9503 (b). The Integrated Plan is a proposed approach to improving water management in the Yakima River basin. Its goals are to protect, mitigate and enhance fish and wildlife habitat, provide increased operational flexibility to manage instream flows to meet ecological objectives, and improve the reliability of water supply for irrigation, municipal supply and domestic uses.
