The WARMF model simulates water quantity and water quality throughout the watershed. Now that the WARMF model has been developed and calibrated, it can be used to support management decisions made by the managers of the watershed by providing information on potential water quantity and water quality impacts associated with any changes within the watershed. These changes could include land management practices, land uses, recreation, and many more. The Upper Mokelumne River Watershed Authority is inviting the public to a free two-part, 1.5-day training session designed to provide additional information on the WARMF model itself and how it might be used by decision-makers in the watershed.
The two-part WARMF training session will be begin Wednesday, May 30, from 1pm to 4pm. This first training session is aimed at providing those with the decision-making powers additional background on the modeling tool and its potential application to management decisions being made in the watershed. This training will be held at the Sutter Creek Theatre, 44 Main Street, in Sutter Creek. The second training will be held Thursday, May 31, 9am to 4pm. This session is a hands-on training geared toward bringing computer-savvy individuals and modelers up-to-speed on the details of how the model can be updated and how the potential water quantity and water quality impacts of various scenarios can be evaluated. This training will be held at the EBMUD Pardee Center, McLean Hall in Valley Springs. People interested in attending should email This email address is being protected from spambots.
