This study deals with uncertainty, stability and robustness in reservoirs operation. These properties of control currently represent a new aspect in the utilization of water resources and their systems in changing conditions. The study is based on the modern control theory of dynamic systems. It also explains the aims and exacting nature of methodical approaches. Instead of analytical methods, simulation models were used for the solution of runoff stability during different flood situations. The flood protection effect of the reservoir was solved on the basis of a set of generated synthetic flood waves. Then, the stability of the runoff was investigated in different hydrological situations. The study concludes that the stability of the runoff from the reservoir is possible to reach only within certain limits, while in a catastrophic flood situation, it is unrealistic. It also concludes that the combination of different flood protection measures is purposeful, e.g. a larger flood-control storage, predischarge, intensification of the hydrometeorological forecast, stream-channel regulation, etc. Finally, the study suggests themes for further investigation in this field.
