Project involving multiple watersheds<br />
HSPF Upper Minnesota and Lac qui<br />
Parle Rivers <strong>Watershed</strong> Phase 1<br />
The goal of this project was to construct two executable<br />
HSPF models for the following two watersheds:<br />
Minnesota River – Headwaters (07020001) and Lac<br />
qui Parle River (07020003). The contractor used the<br />
Minnesota River HSPF model applications already<br />
developed by Tetra Tech as a starting point and refined<br />
the model construction. The contractor produced HSPF<br />
models that, after calibration and validation, will readily<br />
be used to provide information to support conventional<br />
parameter TMDLs.<br />
Goals<br />
• The contractor will compile available existing data<br />
for the binary and FORTRAN input files.<br />
• The contractor will construct the framework of two<br />
HSPF watershed models which are executable.<br />
• The contractor will summarize and communicate the<br />
results.<br />
Results that count<br />
• The contractor participated in calls and an<br />
information gathering meeting in the watershed.<br />
• The contractor submitted the executable files and<br />
supporting files.<br />
• The contractors submitted a memo summarizing the<br />
construction of the two watershed models.<br />
