Sore Thumbs Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 Beaver is at flood pool and they have the gates open. Coming your way! Be ready to adjust your docks.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 4, 2018 Root Admin Posted May 4, 2018 All,We will be opening Table Rock gates 3, 5, 7, 9, and 8 to 1 ft each at 1800 today. The total spillway release will be approximately 5,000 cfs. With todays scheduled generation, the total combined daily outflow will be approximately 7,000 dsf. Tomorrow we are requiring full power from the three available units plus the 5,000 cfs spillway release for a total combined release around 15,000 dsf. We still have one generating unit unavailable.Thank-you,BeckyRebecca ShorttOperations Project Manager, Table Rock Lake4600 State Highway 165, Branson, MO 65616501-340-1220
Royal Blue Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 So it sounds like it's just going to flow on through?
abkeenan Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 Hope the levels don't fluctuate much and interfere with a successful spawn. Sounds like the bed fish are getting clobbered as it is.
Champ188 Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 They’re only running 3400 out of Beaver so shouldn’t be a huge event for anyone.

Sore Thumbs Posted May 4, 2018 Author Posted May 4, 2018 My bad. I just read on their app. Approximately 7600. 7 gates are opened up 1ft.
sfiser Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 6 minutes ago, Sore Thumbs said: I was told that’s not including the gates. Supposedly they are releasing 10000 combined. Beaver is releasing around 11,400 CFS (1 generator releasing 3,800 and then 7,600 CFS from flood gates). I will link the corp webpage below that has the chart on it. Beaver is still rising so we may see a bump in the flood releases at some point today http://www.swl-wc.usace.army.mil/pages/data/tabular/htm/beaver.htm
Sore Thumbs Posted May 4, 2018 Author Posted May 4, 2018 Yep. I forgot to combine the 2. You are correct Sfiser.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 4, 2018 Root Admin Posted May 4, 2018 They’re now running 15,000 cfs out of Table Rock with 5 gates and 3 turbines. It’s equal to 4 full units. Looks like they’re keeping Beaver under 1130 which is amazing considering the rain they got.
