Abstract : Increasingly, and often mutually conflicting requirements for the use of water resources, there is a need for more complex management methods, including the management of the volume of reservoirs. Silt filling of reservoirs is one of the most well-known problems of river hydraulics. Dams and reservoirs, created by damming river flows, cause the retention of river sediment (drag and floating sediment) that comes from the gravitating basins, or sub-basins of the reservoir's tributaries. By analyzing the sediment transport on the tributaries, and the total amount of sediment deposited in the Modrac multi-purpose reservoir, real data are obtained on the amount of sediment introduced into the Modrac multi-pupose reservoir, the dynamics of sediment input, and the degree of pollution of this type of water body. The Modrac multi-purpose reservoir is the only available water resource in the region of Tuzla and its surroundings. Acknowledging the fact that the useful volume of the reservoir is limited, and that over time the reservoir is filled with dragged sediment and coal dust as floating sediment, and that consumers - the population, industry and others must be provided with a water supply with a high degree of safety. Excess water needs to be used to the maximum for the purpose of electricity production, and there is a need to optimize the system, i.e. more efficient management of the water resources of the reservoir, i.e. to prove the maximum utilization of the reservoir while continuously providing all the necessary amounts of water to which the Modrac multi-purpose reservoir is connected.
