This department is offering a grant to Portland State University to develop a temperature model of Lake Roosevelt, in collaboration with the Grand Coulee dam project. The model will aid in evaluating operational and structural alternatives for water flow and temperature regulation, and inform watershed management decisions. Additional funds are needed for peer review of the model runs, ensuring quality assurance. This grant opportunity aims to enhance the understanding of Lake Roosevelt’s ecosystem and water quality for future conservation efforts.

| Description:: | In 2011, Reclamation and Portland State University (PSU) entered into a cooperative agreement whereby PSU is to develop a temperature model of Lake Roosevelt, created by the Grand Coulee dam project. Development of this model affords the ability to evaluate operational and structural alternatives that can influence the regulation of water flow and temperature. It also has the potential to inform in-season watershed management decisions to reduce take, consistent with Section 14.5.2 of the 2008 Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS) Biological Opinion (BiOp). The benefit to constructing a temperature model of Lake Roosevelt allows for the future inclusion of other biological and water quality constituents.
Additional funds are required for further evaluation of this project. Therefore, it is Reclamations intent to provide additional funds to PSU to perform peer review of multiple temperature model runs of Lake Roosevelt and Grand Coulee Dam. Peer review of model runs helps insure quality assurance and quality control (QA-QC) of ReclamationÂ’s modeling effo |
