    Default What is the C.O.E. thinking???????????


    Why are they letting 600 cfs water out of Clinton when it is normal pool level?
    The dropping water is killing the bite around the docks at the marina.
    There is not that much rain in the forecast.

    They do this every year at Milford, they just ran 3000 CFS for about a week. Heres an article about it at Milford. Lake Drawdown Early Due to Cold Weather

    Probably the same deal as perry. They're dropping it down 4 ft below pool for the winter.

    Many Kansas reservoirs have Lake Level Management Plans in place. Many of the plans include winter drawdowns which provide numerous benefits. You can find the 2017 LLMPs HERE.

    Hope this helps answer your question.

    Looks like Perry started a couple months early.
