Abstract
Integrated operation was simulated of ten dynamic combined sewer regulators on a Montreal interceptor. Detailed review of digital recording weather radar capabilities indicated that it is potentially the best rainfall estimation means for accomplishing the runoff prediction that would be required. Auxiliary uses for such radars in metropolitan areas were considered, particularly potentials for thier exploitation as part of urban flood warning systems, using metropolitan Denver as a case study.
