dtrs5kprs Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Guided on Bull today and it has come up some, but hot much. None of the creeks down there are running in the least. You get the feeling they are going to hold it until they have an actual crisis to really mishandle.
Wayne SW/MO Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 We got over an inch yesterday... Branson's measure bucket must be under an awning downtown. I thought that was strange because the storm seemed to cover a larger area then that, but that's what the news reported. I don't know where they take the measurement, but it's probably wireless and prone to mistakes. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
mixermarkb Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Water is $$. They want as much in the lakes to make power with all summer as possible...
Nitroman Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 OK, YA'ALL must have forgot who we are talking about here. This is a US GOVERNMENT RUN AGENCY, THE USACOE has never had a " CRISS & / OR MADE A MISTAKE & IF THEY DID THEY COULD / WOULD NOT MISHANDLE IT " GIVE ME 1 EXAMPLE " !!!!!!! They would never hire or employ anyone that was not really smart or had a great deal of common sense, I know I have been involved with them over the years & when " I GROW UP I WANT TO BE JUST LIKE THEM " !!!!!!!

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted June 11, 2014 Author Root Admin Posted June 11, 2014 Actually it's Southwest Power Administration that calls the shots when it comes to power generation. The Corp steps in when it's a flood situation. I'm sure they work together in the middle of it all... I for one would not like to have their job. It's a no-win position.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted June 11, 2014 Author Root Admin Posted June 11, 2014 I was commenting of the topic in general. Not specifically any one post. I understand anyone's frustration with the Corp and SPA.

And this is not just gub'ment but the God Blessed United States Army. Reminds me of the crusty old Gunny who was yelling at the recruits to jump. All red in the face and foaming at the mouth, He got in the face of one sorry Private demanding to know "who told you to come down, boy?" The breathless Private yelled out "Sir Isaac Newton, Sergeant!". It turns out that Sir Newton was not in that COC, and therefor all instructions to come back to the ground after jumping were not lawful orders
