Minnesota Watershed Red River Basin River Achievements Basin Report 2008 Watershed Achievements Report Statewide 2015 Snake River Watershed Grand Marais and Snake River Watersheds HSPF Modeling – July 2014 In an effort to expedite the completion of TMDL projects, the MPCA has decided to construct watershed models. These models have the potential to support the simultaneous development of TMDL studies for multiple listings within a cataloging unit or 8-digit HUC watershed. In most cases, the MPCA will develop HSPF models. Goals The goal of this project is to continue and finalize watershed models using HSPF for the Grand Marais Creek and Snake River Watersheds and complete the calibration/validation process. The contractor is verified and updated the representation of point source discharges in the models. Where needed, the contractor will compile flow and water quality data for the purposes of calibration and validation. The contractor will produce HSPF watershed models that can readily be used to provide information to support conventional parameter TMDLs. The contractor will clearly demonstrate that the models generate predicted output time series for hydrology, sediment, nutrients, and DO that are consistent with available sets of observed data. The contractor will deliver all modeling files and a final report documenting model development, calibration and validation, and supporting statistics. Results that count • The contractor provided the hydrologic model with simulated flow results and a discussion on the hydrologic calibration approach. The contractor submitted for approval a preliminary section of the final report explaining the hydrology calibration, validation, and water balance, including organized calibration statistics and a narrative discussion. • The contractor provided a description of watershed sediment sources and processes, and associated model representation, which will be included in the final report.
