Water Management Issues:

1.  Early releases (4am to noon) were provided on four days, shown dark green in the above schedule.  July 19 and September 4 are provided as part of PCWA's FERC license conditions for a Dry water year.  July 25 replaced the cancelled Western States 100 race day.  August 1 replaced the cancelled Tevis Cup race day.

2.  Times reflect releases at Oxbow Powerhouse/Ralston Dam.  It takes approximately two hours for the water to travel from Oxbow Powerhouse to the gauge above Tunnel Chute, about 6 hours to reach the Ruck-a-Chucky/Drivers Flat area, and about 10 hours to reach the North Fork confluence.
