Corps of Engineers: White River Flow Control

The Corps of Engineers has put online their operating guidelines for regulating the water flow through the four dams of the White River system. Those guidelines are pegged to two indicators:

• the river level at two points downstream (Newport and Georgetown), and
• the flood-control capacity of the four lakes at any point in time.

The document divides the "year" into specific seasonal guidelines. For those who are interested in anticipating White River water releases from system dams, those guidelines could provide a peephole.
