The Best of Both Worlds: Integrating Statistical and Deterministic Approaches to Area Remediation
We seek a complete framework for adaptive area characterization for purposes of remediation, incorporating both statistical and deterministic features. This hybrid methodology involves...

Functional Analysis of the Exploratory Studies Facility
This paper discusses the development of the 'Physical System Requirements-Exploratory Studies Facility' (PSR-ESF) document. Based on a functional analysis approach, this document includes...

Potential Nuclear Material Safeguards Applied to the Department of Energy's Civilian Radioactive Waste Management System
The Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management (OCRWM) within the U.S. Department of Energy is charged with the responsibility of safe and efficient disposal of this Nation's civilian...

Safety Envelope Input: Nuclear Facility Isotopic Content (NFIC) Management System
The Westinghouse Savannah River Company (WSRC) is aggressively applying environmental remediation and radioactive waste management activities at the U. S. Department of Energy's (DOE)...

Cost and Schedule Baseline Management in the OCRWM Program
The Department of Energy's Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management has established a baseline change control system to support their program control system. The program control...

Application of the Global Positioning System to Locating Remote Sites
The location of Near Field (NF) sampling stations, used for the radiological monitoring program portion of the site characterization phase of the Yucca Mountain Project, were determined...

Project Control?The Next Generation
The Yucca Mountain Site Characterization Project (YMP) is the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) second largest Major System Acquisition Project. We have developed an integrated planning...

A Computer Model for Multiplant Hydroelectric System Simulation
An interactive computer model of a multi-plant hydrothermal electric power generating system has been developed that roughly captures the main features of the British Columbia Hydro system....

Public Process in Fresno/Clovis Water Supply Plan
Groundwater is the principal reservoir for the Fresno/Clovis Metropolitan Area (FCMA) of Central California. However, significant portions of the aquifer are threatened by pesticides and...

Operating the Columbia River: A Balancing Act
Agreements to market the Canadian share of the hydroelectric power generated at U.S. facilities as a result of the Columbia River Treaty will begin terminating in 1998. Renewal of the...

Innovative Wetland Re-creation in Urban Setting
The project site is a 106 hectare, mixed-used, commercial development east of Tampa, Florida and at the westerly limit of the town of Brandon, Florida. Delaney Creek traverses the site...

Optimal Utilization of a Multi-Reservoir Water Distribution System
A water supply distribution system planning model (DSPM) has been developed using a linear programming approach. Unlike the conventional formulation, the water demand requirements are...

Geographic Information System Application: Water Right Places of Use as Polygon Attributes
A Geographic Information System (GIS) was tested for potential use as a water resource management tool by application to a ground water study area. Because of the limitations of the particular...

GIS Reconstruction of Exposure to Water Supply Contaminants
Groundwater pollution resulting from improper waste handling practices in the aerospace industry contaminated the water supply in Tucson, Arizona. State and federal health officials concluded...

Computerized Data Processing and Geographic Information Systems Applications for Development of a 3-Dimensional Groundwater Flow Model
A 3-dimensional numerical groundwater flow model was developed for a 100 square mile area located in the Santa Clara Valley, California. The model development relied upon data base and...

The Development and Use of Policy Statements in River Simulation Models
There are a number of ways in which the physical operation of a river system can be expressed in simulation models. Most of the earlier simulation models have incorporated the operating...

The Law of the River: Policy Expression
The need to accurately represent the law of the Colorado river has heretofore precluded the use of any general purpose river basin simulation model. In order to overcome the inflexibility...

Advanced Decision Support Systems for Environmental Simulation Modeling
Some new computer approaches for integrating simulation models into water-quality management and planning are described. A system for integrating models, databases and decision-support...

Solute Transport Modeling under Unsteady Flow Regimes: An Application of the Modular Modeling System
Many existing solute transport codes rely on the assumption of steady (i.e. time-invariant) flow. This assumption severely limits such models, as accurate simulations often require realistic...

Object-oriented River System Simulation
This paper describes an object-oriented approach to river basin simulation modeling that is event driven rather than time driven as in most river system simulation models. At the heart...
