|
|
| American Whitewater participated in the Upper American River Project Consultation Meeting to set the scheduled recreational flows for Ice House and Slab Creek. We have mapped out the possible flows for 2020 with Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD), California Outdoors, the U. S. Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management and the State Water Resource Control Board. While all current conditions point to a Dry Water Year, following is the flow schedule for four possible water year type scenarios:
Note that the water year type will be determined by the May California Department of Water Resources Bulletin 120 " Report of Water Conditions in California". So stay tuned the final schedule will be posted on the AW Calendar once we know the final water year type.
