No surplus releases will be made during the <br />water year unless flood control operations dictate that additional <br />releases are required. <br /> <br />Surplus releases from Lake Mead are separated into three categories. <br />The first category is additional water for MWD and CAP. The second <br />category is additional water for Mexico. And the third category is <br />additional water for power generation and operational flexibility. <br />Category one surpluses can range from 300 to 1,300 KAF/yr. Category <br />two surpluses can be as high as 200 KAF/yr. Category three surplus <br />releases can only be made if the computed annual Lake Mead surplus <br />release is greater than category one plus category two surplus <br />demands. 'Again, surplus releases cannot exceed 13,400,000 acre~ <br />feet/year. <br /> <br />Category one and two surpluses (additional water to MWD, CAP, and <br />Mexico), are determined on October 1 for all months in the year. <br />Category three surpluses (additional releases for power generation) <br />are determined on October 1 for only the months of October through <br />March. From April through September, category three surplus releases <br />are dictated by flood control requirements. <br /> <br />6. Compute the maximum surplus possible for CAP and MWD. Both must <br />take an equal share of surplus. If CAP cannot take surplust then MWD <br /> <br />12 <br />
