This chart illustrates a very basic schematic to the streamflow model. The following items are of note:

The upper region and lower regions in accordance with the administration of the Bear River and the Compact. The regions are split at Pixley Dam.

Three gages have been identified as very important to the streamflow model. These locations are (1) inflow into Wyoming at Gage 11500, (2) inflows into Utah at Gage 20300, and (3) inflows to Idaho at Gage 39500.

The operational criteria of three reservoirs are also important in the streamflow model: (a) Sulfur Creek Reservoir; (b) Woodruff Narrows Reservoir; and (c) Whitman Reservoir in Utah.

Inflows from tributaries will be integrated to the extent that streamflow and diversion records are available (i.e., Smiths Fork).

This schematic will be much more detailed as work progresses with additional gages, diversion locations, return flow locations, and inflows from the tributaries, etc.
