Gatorjet Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Just read it will take 937 before the extra spillway kicks in. Amazing. 935.03 at 0700 4-27-08 ! 68,000 cfs being released at the dam, also new record. Hope they don't have to use the spillway. Less than 2' more!!! That's really scary! Everything below the dam could be devastated. The hatchery, houses, docks, resorts, and the Landing would all be in danger. Let's hope and pray that it doesn't happen. Real men go propless!
Brian K. Shaffer Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 As for opening the auxillary spillway gates : IT WILL NOT EVER HAPPEN. Not unless Beaver dam broke and we needed to hold that water in an instant. It was 75 million dollars to use or lose.. so they used it. But they will never USE it.
