Gauge

Gauge Description:

Call 1-800-LAKES-11 and push 4,7,2 for current release and generation schedule. There is a minimum flow of 2000 cfs, so the schedule will always indicate at least one unit. One unit = 2000-5000cfs, two units = 5000-10000 cfs, three units = 10000-15000cfs, four units = 15000-20000cfs. It runs 8000 cfs (the rodeo level) from 9am-3pm everyday from April 1 through beginning of June (as of April 2007 it is scheduled to run 3,000 cfs 12m-12m due to drought conditions). Then there are rec releases on weekends only from June through end of October, alternating between 4000, 6000, and 8000cfs for each day. Rec release season often ends early due to lack of water.
