Abstract
In this paper, a two- stage stochastic fully fuzzy linear programming is developed for a management problem in terms of water resources allocations to illustrate the applicability of a proposed approach. A proposed approach converts the problem into a triple- objective problem and then a weighting method is utilized for solving it. The advantage of the approach is to generate a set of solutions for water resources planning which help the decision maker to make tradeoffs between the efficiency of economic and the risk violation of the constrains. A case study is given for illustration.
