In the table that follows, each date is color-coded according to the kind of release scheduled for that day:
| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Scheduled release is not yet known. | |
| Scheduled release: 500 cfs or more below Lewiston Dam all day. | |
| Ramp up/down from Lewiston during the day. | |
| Projected release based on the most recent scheduled release. |

2. The Hoopa Valley Tribe's Boat Dance Ceremony will not be held this year (they are held only in odd-numbered years, typically late August).
3. Times reflect releases from Lewiston Dam, and it is assumed that it takes approximately 12 hours for the water to get to Pigeon Point and 20 hours to get to Cedar Flat. This is a good rule of thumb, though the actual flow travel time is flow dependent (the higher the flow, the less time it takes). Here are some approximate observed numbers:
| Lewiston Release | Time to Pigeon Point | Time to Cedar Flat |
|---|---|---|
| 500 cfs | 13 hours | 24 hours |
| 1000 cfs | 12 hours | 20 hours |
| 1500 cfs | 10 hours | 14 hours |
| 3000 cfs | 9 hours | 13 hours |
