Abstract:
Water bank can be thought as an institutional mechanism that facilitates the legal transfer and market exchange of various types of surface, groundwater, and storage entitlements. The California Drought Water Banks, the most well-known water banks, have been established by state governments to transfer water rights temporarily among entities. This paper focuses on California's experiences with water banks and water transfers. The activities, operation, and water management strategies of the California water banks are introduced, and some of the issues and lessons from the state-operated water banks are summarized.

2 A New Method of Substituting Transferring Structures in a Large-Scale Channel

Abstract:
There are many hydraulic structures in large water transferring channels. These structures create rather difficulties for the development of an unsteady flow model for solving Saint-Venant equations. This paper proposed a method of equivalent roughness by using a short virtual channel to replace the actual transitional structure in order to simulate the effect of the structure on the water surface elevation and discharge. Unsteady calculation software was developed and succeeded to simulate transitional progress in the Middle Route of S.N Water Transfer Channel.
