If it <br />appears that water is not needed to maintain base flows for tllese <br />organisms, then coneid.er a Becond pulse flmw in the 7,400 to 8,000 range <br />should be planned for late Auguet or early 5eptember. This will help <br />with removal of any sieedling establishment that has occurred on high <br />island sites during the growing season, or on lower sandbars during <br />periods when flows may have declined in mid-sumrner. AplaTZned <br />early fa.ll pulse event znight also coincide well witit river clearing and <br />disking work {flooding; sites that have been cleared and dislced to create <br />active channel}. <br />5) The last priority should be to carry-over water xntv the next water <br />year. Storage of EA w,ater can be ca.rxzed over to a total of 200,000 acrF- <br />feet. Under the EA ru.les, however; this can only occur if the t-eservoir <br />is iiot full and there is sufficient storage for the EA carry-ovex 'watex. <br />Under current projections, there doesn't aiDpear that there wzll be aztv <br />xoom for caarry-over stoxage. 7hings could change before next 'October, <br />howe+rer, so this should still be a consideration. <br />I appreciate the opportunxty to provide these camments. Iwish you <br />the best in developing a plan tor the coztnang year. Thanlcs. <br />Sincerely, <br />Paul J. Curriex <br />Eaecutive Director <br />.t - L O Q " -;9 - t C d4 CA_M? C",
