The minimum release <br />during the fall and winter was 700 cubic feet per <br />s8cond (fl"/s) to generate power and maintain <br />f,sh ffows. Springtime releases were controlled to <br />allow the reservoir to fill early in August. Maxi- <br />mum releases of 7,500 (Pis from the reservoir <br />occurred late in June. On September 30, 1976, the <br />reservoir had 335,000 acre-feet of water in active <br />storage at elevation 6,505 feet.
