<br />Water Year 1993 <br /> <br />Since the Olean annual inflow of 1.2 million acre-feet far <br />exceeds the storage capacity of345,000 acre-feet, there is little <br />chance that the reservoir will not fill during water year 1993. <br />In order to minimize the high releases that occur in the spring <br />and to ensure that the reservoir fills, it will be drawn down to <br />an appropriate level this winter, probably to minimum pool <br />elevation (6463 feet) which corresponds to a volume of 93,000 <br />acre-feet. <br /> <br />To meet the previously stated operation objectives, a constant <br />release of approximately 500 to 600 cubic feet per second will <br />be made through the fall and winter months. Releases at this <br />level will provide an appropriate level of reservoir drawdown <br />for the 1993 runoff season, while ensuring that downstream <br />water rights including municipal and industrial needs are met. <br />The reservoir is expected to fill in the summer of 1993. <br /> <br />ACTUAL STORAGE 1992 <br /> <br />THOUBAHD ACAWI!I!T <br />400 <br /> <br />--- ~ <br /> " <br /> '\ ,./ ...- -., <br /> "'" <--, '- / <br /> i <br /> <br />300 <br /> <br />200 <br /> <br />100 <br /> <br />o <br />;t .f" ~",c, ,~ (<-. ~~ ,;t ..~ ~+ ~... ,l' ..(J <br /> <br />PROJECTED RELEASES 1993 <br /> <br />TtfOU....ND ACRI!:.f'EET <br />4.0 <br /> <br />"p o.
