<br />Reservoir Operation Report
<br />Take 3 --
<br />
<br />The Coordinating Committee considered the reservoir operation
<br />
<br />plans for the remainder of 1975 and for 1976, as drafted by the Reservoir
<br />
<br />Control Center of the Corps of Engineers. The plans emphasized con-
<br />
<br />tinued operations toward evacuating stored flood waters by next spring's
<br />
<br />flood season. If the stored flood waters are not fully evacuated by
<br />
<br />1 March 1976, operations during the spring period will be designed to
<br />
<br />return storage' to more desireable levels by the June-July mountain
<br />
<br />
<br />snowmelt period. It is corrte~plated that full-service releases or better
<br />
<br />will be provided for power and navigation in 1976 under all conditions
<br />
<br />of water supply. Under normal or below water supply conditions in 1976,
<br />
<br />releases from all projects will be fully utilized for power production.
<br />
<br />Some spills by power plants will be necessary if inflows are Significantly
<br />
<br />above normal. The available power capacity will continue to be used as
<br />
<br />effectively as possible to reduce the use of oil-fired generation to the
<br />
<br />maximum extent practicable. This oil-savings program has generally
<br />
<br />resulted in savings of about 2 million barrels of oil per year.
<br />
<br />Colonel Harry F. Mumma, Missouri River Division Engineer for the
<br />
<br />Corps of Engineers, announced that the Corps will adopt the Committee's
<br />
<br />recommendations for operation of the main stem reservoirs during the
<br />
<br />coming year.
<br />
<br />The next meeting of the Coordinating Committee is scheduled for
<br />
<br />April 22, 1976, in Omaha.
