4:15 – 5:45 PANEL DISCUSSION: SYSTEM REOPERATION – THE PROMISE AND THE PERILSGrandeBallroom A/BModerator: Elizabeth (Betty) Andrews, PE, Principal Engineer, ESA PWAThe State of California is undertaking three key initiatives with regard to water supply and floodmanagement systems: multi-objective flood management (FloodSAFE), comprehensive management ofthe Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta (Delta Plan), and System Reoperations. Senate Bill X2 1 authorized theSystem Reoperations Program, which seeks to identify and examine promising options for reconfiguringand re-operating the State’s flood protection and water supply system to increase water supply reliabilityand flood protection, and to provide for ecosystem restoration. These initiatives present an extraordinaryopportunity for dramatically improving the performance of the State’s flood and water supplymanagement system: providing greater water supply reliability, reducing flood hazards, and restoringfloodplain habitat and the natural timing of flows at an unprecedented valley-wide scale. However, evenif the promise of system reoperation benefits is considerable, technical and institutional challenges existto developing optimal reoperation plans and implementing them. Panelists will address potentialopportunities, technical and policy constraints, and other limiting factors, in light of specific or multiplegoals for reoperation (water supply, flood management, ecosystem).Stu Townsley, US Army Corps of EngineersJohn Cain, American RiversCurt Aikens, Yuba County Water AgencyJay Lund, University of California, DavisJoe Countryman, MBK EngineersMichael Mierzwa, California DWRWEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 74:15 – 5:45 FEMA MOCK DISCOVERY SESSION – Executive 2A/2B4:15 – 5:45 Overview of Flood Risk Management Activities in California’s Central Valley – Executive 3A/3BPresented by Rod Mayer, California DWRCONCURRENT TECHNICAL SESSIONS – WEDNESDAY LATE AFTERNOONExecutive 1Executive 44:15 – 5:45 TECHNICAL SESSION: HYDROLOGIC MODELING IIISESSION CHAIR: Scott McGolpin, Director, County of Santa Barbara Public WorksContinuous Hydrologic Simulation - Avoiding the Pitfalls of Assuming Hydrologic Stationarity,Richard Shimota, PE, CFM, WEST Consultants, Inc.Synthesizing Peak Flow Design and Long Term Simulation Hydrology, Michael Nowlan, PE, CFM,Wood Rodgers, Inc.NEXRAD Radar Rainfall Analysis in HEC-HMS Hydrologic Modeling, Brian Rowley, PE, CFM,Associate Project Manager, AtkinsHydromodification Continuous Modeling Simulation Dilemma: To SWMM or to HSPF?
