Planning for and licensing of a major hydroelectric project requires many hydrologic and hydraulic studies. This paper gives a brief description and history of the Susitna Hydroelectric Project; describes the basin, river, and project operation; and gives on overview of hydrologic studies. Attention is given to hydrologic studies for project economics and project design and to hydrologic and hydraulic studies for environmental impact analysis.

This document contains a series of reports and comments of the Alaska Power Authority's External Review Panel on the Susitna Hydroelectric Project based on their review of the comprehensive Feasibility Report prepared by Acres American, Inc. Reports are dated from January 1981 to April 1982. Included are seismic studies, environmental studies, fishery and wildlife studies, economic evaluations, geotechnical investigations, and hydraulic and hydrology considerations.

Physical habitat variables are reported for 4 sloughs along the Susitna River as part of the Susitna Hydroelectric Project in Alaska.

Plan of study presenting a program of activities for project feasibility analysis of hydroelectric development in the upper Susitna River basin in Alaska. Each activity is described along with a cost estimate for its completion.

This excerpt, "Section C.21, Loss of recreation benefits," from an unidentified report, discusses effects of the proposed Susitna Hydroelectric Project on whitewater rafts and salmon fishing on the Susitna River.
