Reductions to continue (Part Deux)
With inflows continuing to drop off sharply along with some other western hydropower generation issues, river releases will continue to be gradually reduced. Friends of the Bighorn recognize and greatly appreciate the efforts of Reclamation to reduce releases gradually.
On Sunday at 8am river releases will be reduced from 6,220cfs to 5,720cfs.
On Monday at 8am river releases will be reduced from 5,720cfs to 5,220cfs.
It is anticipated further reductions will continue on Tuesday.
As these reductions continue, we would appreciate photos and commentary on stream bank erosion to help document the consequences of the prolonged river releases, higher lake elevations and this extraordinarily wet spring. Please send any information you have to bighornriver.org@gmail.com
