US ARMY'S corp of engineers DAILY RESERVOIR CONTROL CENTER REPORT UPDATE

(The Cave Editor does not always update this section daily - am studying this information and too much work to update daily!)

http://www.nwd-mr.usace.army.mil/rcc/reports/showrep.cgi?3MRDTAP7

THE FOLLOWING IS LINKED TO A PICTURE FOR JUNE 24, 2011

A guide assisting in reading this report:

  • Under 'Project Information' are the capacities of each reservoir referring to the dam/reservoir's elevation above sea level.
  • MP means the minimum power pool or a normal lake level- FC means flood control of the maximum height the reservoir can hold before water goes over the emergency spillways (called an "uncontrolled release").
  • Current data shows the reservoirs actual level at the time of observation- acre-feet of the lake's surface- inflow to the lake/reservoir and discharge out the dam's control structures/spillway.
  • The last figure in each project- probably the figure most telling- is the percentage of flood control capacity left in that particular reservoir/lake.
