[QUOTE="Allen, post: 420933, member: 389"] I would disagree with it being "meaningless". It represents the volume of water that can be stored up above an icejam and the potential for it to fail catastrophically. Could Garrison have tamed that event? Yes, but I am not convinced it would have been able to prevent catastrophic flooding due to the ice jam failing. Unfortunate timing akin to the 2009 icejam has plenty of water coming from the other tributaries south of the dam and a person can get to an expected flow of around 70k-80k in the Bismarck area (roughly flood stage) without ice problems. Now, this wouldn't be a weeks long event like 2011 as the water would recede pretty quickly, but nobody wants water in their house for any length of time. [/QUOTE]
