A new method of locally calibrating reservoir inflow climate-change ensembles using monthly factors derived by averaging correction factors calculated from a range of exceedance values was proposed and compared against calibrating only the mean and median of the ensemble. Federal agency reservoir operations and statutory, regulatory, and compact legal provisions affecting Verdigris Basin in Kansas were also analyzed.

  • Kansas Resource Management Plan and Record of Decision
    United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Tulsa District Oklahoma Resource Area September 1991 KANSAS RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN Dear Reader: This doCument contains the combined Kansas Record of Decision (ROD) and Resource Management Plan (RMP). The ROD and RMP are combined to streamline our mandated land-use-planning requirements and to provide the reader with a useable finished product. The ROD records the decisions of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for administration of approximately 744,000 acres of Federal mineral estate within the Kansas Planning Area. The Planning Area encompasses BLM adm in i sterad sp 1 it-estate mi nera 1 s and Federa 1 minerals under Federal surface administered by other Federal Agencies within the State of Kansas. The Kansas RMP and appendices provide direction and guidance to BLM Managers in the formulation of decisions effecting the management of Federal mineral estate within the planning area for the next 15 years. The Kansas RMP was extracted from the Proposed Kansas RMP/FIES. The issuance of this ROD and RMP completes the BLM land use planning process for the State of Kansas. We now move to implementation of the plan. We wish to thank all the individuals and groups who participated in this effort these past two years, without their help we could not have completed this process. er~ 1_' Area Manager Oklahoma Resource Area RECORD OF DECISION on the Proposed Kansas Resource Management Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement September 1991 RECORD OF DECISION The decision is hereby made to approve the proposed decision as described in the Proposed Kansas Resource Management Plan/Final Env ironmental Impact Statement (RMP/FEIS July 1991), MANAGEMENT CONSZOERATXONS The decision to approve the Proposed Plan is based on: (1) the input received from the public, other Federal and state agencies; (2) the environmental analysis for the alternatives considered in the Draft RMP/Oraft EIS, as we11 as the Proposed Kansas RMP/FEIS.

ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 worch) The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) surveyed Cedar Bluff Reservoir in September of 2000 to develop a topographic map and compute a present storage-elevation relationship (area-capacity tables). The data were used to calculate reservoir capacity lost due to sediment accumulation since dam closure in November of 1950. The underwater survey was conducted in September of 2000 near reservoir elevation 2143.7 feet (project datum). The underwater survey used sonic depth recording equipment interfaced with a global positioning system (GPS) that gave continuous sounding positions throughout the underwater portions of the reservoir covered by the survey vessel. The above-water topography was detennined by digitizing the developed contour lines from the U.S.

  • KANSAS CLIMATE UPDATE July 2019 Summary
    KANSAS CLIMATE UPDATE July 2019 Summary Highlights July ended with a return to of abnormally dry conditions, mostly in the central part of the state where the largest precipitation deficits occurred. July flooding occurred at 31 USGS stream gages on at least 14 streams for one to as much as 31 days. USDA issued agricultural disaster declarations due to flooding since mid-March for three Kansas Counties on July 11. 2019. Producers in Atchison, Leavenworth and Wyandotte counties may be eligible for emergency loans. July 25, FEMA added Bourbon, Comanche, Crawford, Dickinson, Douglas, Edwards, Ford, Gray and Riley counties to those eligible for public assistance under DR-4449 on June 20th. The incident period for the Kansas Multi-Hazard Event is April 28-July 12, 2019. Federal presidential declarations remain in place for 33 counties. FEMA-3412-EM allows for federal assistance to supplement state and local efforts. July 31, 2019 U.S. Small Business Administration made an administrative declaration of disaster due to flooding June 22 –July 6, 2019 making loans available to those affected in Marion County and contiguous counties of Butler, Chase, Dickinson, Harvey, McPherson, Morris and Saline. 1 General Drought Conditions Kansas became drought free by the U.S. Drought Monitor in January 2019 but began to see dry conditions the last week in July. Changes in drought classification over the month for the High Plains area is also shown. Figure 1.
