The PMFM Technical Guidelines supplement the roles and responsibilities for implementing the PMFM, principally by elaborating the role of the MRC Programmes (within the established remit of the MRC Secretariat) and of the National Mekong Committees (NMCs).
For monitoring purposes, the Information and Knowledge Management Programme (IKMP, Technical Support Division, OSP), in consultation with the Flood Management and Mitigation Programme (FMMP, Technical Support Division, OSP), will maintain this webpage for tracking the day-to-day compliance of the actual flows at the selected hydrological stations with the agreed PMFM flow frameworks for monitoring.
This webpage will keep track of the actions taken to: (1) Raise awareness of emerging critical flow conditions; (2) Assess the causes of these flow conditions; and (3) Mitigate critical flow conditions.
Both IKMP and FMMP are to communicate with the BDP Programme when the agreed PMFM flow framework for monitoring are transgressed. IKMP, when needed, will conduct rapid assessments and diagnostic studies to evaluate and describe the causes of (emerging) critical flow conditions.
The Basin Development Plan Programme (BDP, Planning Division, OSV) will communicate with the NMC Secretariats, IKMP and others regarding the timing and scope of actions required to address critical flow conditions in the basin. They will also guide and support coordinated action by the Member Countries to address (potential) critical flow situations and transgressions of the PMFM Technical Guidelines.
