Kootenai flows to drop

August 22, 2013 |
Tonight, Libby Dam will
begin ramping down to target Koocanusa Reservoir
elevation 2449' at the end of August.
At 11 p.m. MST Thursday, discharge will be
reduced from 14 kcfs to 13 kcfs. Additional 1
kcfs discharge reductions will be made on Friday
night, Saturday night, and Sunday night, so that
by Monday morning, discharge will be 10 kcfs.
On Monday, an additional schedule will be issued
to set the flow for the final week of the month,
somewhere between 8 kcfs and 10 kcfs.
In September, discharge will be held at 8 kcfs
until Koocanusa Reservoir elevation is below
2449', at which time it will be reduced to 6
kcfs and held for the month. This threshold will
likely be reached in the first week of the
month. |
