SITUATIOM
Current Despite current inclement weather, DWR construction crews continue to repair erosion below the
Situation: emergency spillway. Rock,aggregate and cement slurry are being used to repair and backfill the
affected areas.
As of this morning,water flow from the flood control spillway is 80,000 cubic feet per second.This
reduced outflow is allowing debris removal from the diversion pool, below the spillway.The level of
the reservoir has been reduced by 40 feet to accommodate inflow from current and forecasted
inclement weather and is not expected to exceed anticipated outflows.
The trail system directly affected by the damaged spillway include the Brad Freeman and Dan Beebe
trails and have been closed. Launch ramps serving the lake remain closed.California State Park
Rangers are providing roving patrols due to a large number of contacts in the closed area.
DWR continues to aggressively monitor the status of the dam,spillways, related structures,and
progress of repair activities. Data from engineering and imagery ensure proper implementation of
emergency spillway erosion plans.
