Case Study |

The Grand Coulee study began in March 1999 with the drafting of a scoping paper on the issues to be addressed within the framework of the case study procedure. The study was led by Professor Len Ortolano (Stanford University), and Doctor Katherine Cushing (Berkeley University), with the collaboration of the US Bureau of Reclamation, US Corps of Engineers and Bonneville Power Administration in the US, and BCHydro and Columbia Basin Trust in Canada. The draft paper was presented to a meeting of interest groups that came together in Spokane, Washington on 20 May 1999. 60 people attended, a press release was issued, and the final scoping paper (July 1999) reflected the comments made at the meeting. The final scoping paper provided the broad terms of reference for the second phase of the study. The draft final reportof the Grand Coulee case study was completed in December 1999 and was discussed at a final meeting of stakeholders organised by WCD on 13 January in Portland, Oregon. The final report was released in November 2000 Please cite this report as follows: Ortolano, L., Kao Cushing, K., and Contributing Authors. 2000.
