DADAKOTA Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Have they shut the flood gates on Stockton yet? When will the turbine work be completed and when will they start generating again?
BilletHead Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Still running the gates some, very little though. 340 cubic feet a minute. Normal off flow is 40 cubic feet. I was told the generation would be down a year and a half. That was around march or so. Last time I was over there the turbine blade is up on top of the dam, BilletHead "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"

straw hat Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I saw one report about 1 week ago that said it would be the end of next year. I am sure that will change.
DADAKOTA Posted August 4, 2013 Author Posted August 4, 2013 How much rain ya'll get down there? they gonna open the gates up again?
BilletHead Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Predicting Monday according to a corp site. http://www.nwk.usace.army.mil/Locations/WaterManagement.aspx BUT it all depends on water downstream. There is a bunch of water coming down Cedar creek and the Osage drainage.

Dutch Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I hope that they hold it and let it get up to around 873 for a few weeks.
DADAKOTA Posted August 5, 2013 Author Posted August 5, 2013 Hey Dutch - Where on that site tells you they will have the gates open? Looked around and didn't see it.
BilletHead Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Dadakota, I am not Dutch but I posted the site. Go to 3-Day Reservoir Forecast (RAW Data) Remember this is a guess to what they will do. There (Corp) guess but never trust what they weather say because weather changes there minds just like it does ours, BilletHead This is really simple to read just look at it. Top line is the day it is updated and the three days following. Find the lake you want. First reading is normal power pool (MMP). Then read to the right. The day it is updated it gives current lake level then current outflow. Then day one guess lake level and guess outflow. Then to day two and three. Keep in mind the minimum flow without flood gates and generation in 40 cubic feet so anything other than the 40 is flood gates. This is a copy and paste of the site but it is a bit different from the site which is easier to read.
