Panel on Climate Change; select hydrology model; and, progress toward strategy development. Presentation summary includes the following:
two neighboring regions are working together to
solve water problems while protecting the
environment; rigorous technical analyses are developing sound

may improve decision-making and may be required
for permitting;
methods exist to explore possible futures and
better prepare for them;
