Over the period of recent years, they <br /> gained some experience in setting the gates to permit any <br /> given outflow, but they do not rely on that setting in <br /> the final sense, but make a verification measurement at this <br /> .`1 <br /> Caddoa gait every time there le a change of release, and if <br /> their verification measurement shows that they are more than <br /> five per cent off at the record discharge, they make a <br /> change in the gate setting. <br /> The point there is that that gaze is intimately related <br /> to the operation of John Martin Dam, and all of the work of <br /> maintaining and operating that station is done by the Corps <br /> of Engineers. <br /> The records from that gate are officially published in <br />
