Abstract

This document examines the structural deficit of Lake Mead in the Colorado River Basin. The structural deficit is the difference between how much water was agreed to be released and how much water is actually used. Using calculated and actual Colorado River Simulation System (CRSS) data, we were able to determine the change in storage and then create a reasonable reservoir value.
