<br />Water Year 1994 <br /> <br />Under most probable inflow conditions during \be 1994 <br />water year, the Lake Mead water level is expected to be <br />drawn down to elevation 361.1 meters (1184.8 feet) at the <br />end of June 1994. At that level, the lake will have an active <br />storage approximately 25,700 million cubic meters <br />(20,800,000 acre-feet). During water year 1994, a total of <br />approximately 10.5 billion cubic meters (8.5 million acre- <br />feet) is scheduled to be released from Lake Mead under <br />most probable conditions, all passing through the <br />powerplant. <br /> <br />The outlook for lowest and highest monthly releases of 1994 <br />will be about 580 million cubic meters (470,000 acre-feet) <br />and 1,172 Illillion cubic meters (950,000 acre-feet), <br />respectively. Orawdown during the peak large mouth bass <br />. spawning period in April and May, is planned to be near the <br />limits of decline recommended in a July 1982 final report by <br />the Arizona Game and Fish Department and the Nevada <br />Department of Wildlife. That report summarized results of <br />a 5-year study and recommended a drawdown rate of less <br />than 5 centimeters (2 inches) per day. <br /> <br />ACTUAL STORAGE 1893 <br /> <br />"WON CUBIC IIETUI <br />00 <br /> <br />MILLION ACR&.n:ET <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> . <br /> . <br /> . <br />-- . <br /> 1 <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />3D <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />'0 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />1'1 12 <br />'cf' ~o~ .,.CI ).f ~ .". .,. +~ ~+ ~" ~ " <br /> <br />16 <br /> <br />MOST PROBABLE RElEASES 1994 <br /> <br />IIIWQN cuatC I1II1"U8 <br />1100 <br /> <br />niOUlAJlD ACRWUT <br /> <br />.,. <br /> <br /> , <br /> .--- I <br /> -- 1'\ <br /> / <br /> -.... 7 <br />r\ / '- <br /> . <br /> . <br /> <br />'200 <br /> <br />72 <br /> <br />100 <br /> <br />.1 <br /> <br />100 <br /> <br />II <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />o 0 <br />~ #~ .,.CI ~+ ~ .". .,. .~ ? j' ~ " <br /> <br />MOST PROBABLE REGULATED INFLOW 1994 <br /> <br />M1WOIf CUM: IIII1TV'1 <br />'BOO <br /> <br />_D --....,. <br />13" <br /> <br />BOO <br /> <br /> ...- '" / \ <br />II '\ / <br /> <br />,- <br /> <br />1154 <br /> <br />,... <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />'000 <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />100 <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />- - <br />;P;4-c,~~~,f'+~ ;~" <br /> <br />MOST PROBABLE STORAGE 1994 <br /> <br />IlII.UON CUIIIC 1IET'U11 <br />.. <br /> <br />
