The document describes BBMB's Real Time Decision Support System (RTDSS) project. The objectives are to incorporate advanced data acquisition and communication systems to help with operational management of Bhakra and Beas reservoirs. The system collects telemetry data from over 80 stations, including rainfall, water levels, snow levels. It also downloads satellite data and forecasts. The data is analyzed using hydrological and hydrodynamic models to forecast reservoir inflows and water levels to help with flood control and water distribution.

4. RTDSS - Introduction
• BBMB – Responsible for management and operation of
• Bhakra, Pong, Nangal and Pandoh Dams
• Distribution of water from
• Ravi, Satluj and Beas Rivers
• The need for RTDSS
• For accurate inflow forecast at reservoirs
• Scenario generation for various forecasts
• Flood control and early warning systems
• Equitable distribution of water among partner states
