Abstract
A novel bankruptcy approach is proposed for resolving transboundary river
conflicts in which the total water demand or claim of the riparian parties
is more than the available water. Bankruptcy solution methods can allocate
the available water to the conflicting parties with respect to their claims.
Four commonly used bankruptcy methods in the economic literature are used
here to develop new river bankruptcy solution methods for allocating water
to the riparian parties of river systems. Given the non-uniform spatial and
temporal distribution of water across river basins, the proposed
solution methods are formulated as non-linear network flow optimization
models to allocate water with respect to time sensitivity of water
deliveries at different locations in a river network during the planning
horizon. Once allocation optimization solutions are developed, their
acceptability and stability must be evaluated. Thus, a new bankruptcy
allocation stability index (BASI) is developed for evaluating the
acceptability of river bankruptcy solutions. To show how the proposed river
bankruptcy framework can be helpful in practice, the suggested methods are
applied to a real-world transboundary river system with eight riparians
under various hydrologic regimes. Stability analysis based on the proposed
stability evaluation method suggests that the acceptability of
allocation rules is sensitive to hydrologic conditions and demand values.
This finding has an important policy implication suggesting that fixed
allocation rules and treaties may not be reliable for
securing cooperation over transboundary water resources as they are
vulnerable to changing socioeconomic and climatic conditions as well as
hydrologic non-stationarity.
