Modeling in Support of C-51 Allocation Sample Clauses

Modeling in Support of C-51 Allocation. The Consultant will update the City’s model that was submitted in 2021 in support of the C-51 Letter Modification Application to demonstrate safe yields at the 5 MGD C-51 allocation. MODFLOW will be the model code used to construct the groundwater flow model to simulate saturated conditions. MODPATH software will be used in conjunction with MODFLOW in order to delineate potential groundwater flow trajectories and capture zones of production ▇▇▇▇▇. A simplified steady state model representative of present-day hydrogeological conditions will be constructed for calibration. During calibration, the magnitude and spatial distribution of hydrologic parameters (hydraulic conductivity, specific yield and potentially, specific storage) will be adjusted manually to provide better fit between simulated and observed water levels in wetland areas as well as pumping and monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇. The steady state model will be converted to a transient numerical model to provide a baseline for simulations of future water management scenarios.
