Planning team facilitation and trade-off analysis
BC Hydro-Water Use Planning
Assisting consultative committees to reach consensus on preferred operating regimes for BC Hydro hydroelectric facilities. Photo: Sugar Lake Dam, Shuswap River. Quintry Management Consulting teamed with BC Hydro power specialists, fish and wildlife biologists, community relations managers, and computer modellers to undertake Water Use Planning on two of BC Hydro's hydroelectric facilities in British Columbia, Canada.
Water Use Planning was a new collaborative approach to decision making in natural resource planning. Quintry guided the committees through a structured decision making process through a two-year planning period.
Quintry helped committees members develop mutual understanding of resource values and to make difficult decisions around trade-offs. Quintry also developed interactive visual computer tools to help committee members interpret large amounts of technical data.
The results of recommended changes to BC Hydro operations will be benefits to increased power generation, recreation use, First Nation heritage protection, and fish while maintaining current levels of flood and erosion control.
