This Water Management Department grant is established to optimize water flow in the Rio Chama. Its core purpose is to develop a sophisticated river flow model that simultaneously supports recreational river rafting, maintains a healthy fishery, and ensures sufficient water for downstream users. The grant also requires the creation of a comprehensive System Optimization Study Report. This report will establish a scientifically determined environmental flow regime, optimized for the hydrologic system’s performance and agreed upon by all stakeholders. It necessitates detailed scientific analysis of the river’s physical and biological attributes, including channel cross-section and riparian vegetation. The recipient must possess expertise in scientific analysis and community outreach specific to the Rio Chama basin.

Description: | Develop a river flow model to identify optimal flow ranges that support river rafting and maintain a viable fishery while providing flows for downstream water users. Also, develop a System Optimization Study Report consisting of a scientifically determined environmental flow regime, adjusted to optimize the hydrologic systems performance and agreed to by the multiple users of the Rio Chama. This report will need to include scientific analysis of physical and biologic attributes of the system including channel cross section and ripirian vegetation analysis. Recipeint will need to provide expertise in developing the scientific analyses and community outreach for the Rio Chama. |
