Edison started releasing 1100 cfs on the morning of Oct 29, 2011. Both turbines at Mammoth Pool Powerhouse are offline for maintenance, so no water can go through the powerhouse. Edison needs to lower the reservoir and deliver water to their downstream powerhouses and to downstream water users. They have to send the water down the river bed. This release is expected to continue through the month of November and possibly into December. Changes in demand for the water could reduce or end the flows earlier.
