Various performance measures: reliability, resiliency and vulnerability are taken into account. A general methodology for finding a cost-effective water quality management program is developed. The approach employs a new idea of the stochastic branch and bound method, which combines random estimates of the performance for subsets of decisions with iterative refinement of the most promising subsets.</mods:abstract><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8601">1996-06</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>WP-96-066</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Monograph</mods:genre></mets:xmlData></mets:mdWrap></mets:dmdSec><mets:amdSec ID="TMD_eprint_4961"><mets:rightsMD ID="rights_eprint_4961_mods"><mets:mdWrap MDTYPE="MODS"><mets:xmlData><mods:useAndReproduction>
