Abstract
The purpose of this memorandum is to document the development of the RiverWare model and results used in the Yakima Basin Study. The Yakima Basin Study will result in an Integrated Water Resources Development Plan for meeting the instream and out-of-stream needs for current and future water supply associated with the Yakima River system. The model of the system (YAKRW) is being used to estimate the specific effects of proposed new water resources projects on water supply and instream flow conditions. It is also being used to estimate the effects of potential climate change on future water supplies and instream flows.
