[QUOTE="pluckem, post: 91952, member: 843"] I would guess the level will have to be adjusted after the 2011 flood if you want to compare water releases to the river elevation at Washburn. The NDGF has said a few times that the flood flows washed out 2' of river bed (not 100% sure on that, but that is what sticks in my head). So when using the bridge piles as a reference point the levels would have to be dropped by 2' for equivalent water release numbers. I guess what I am getting at is just because the water level is the lowest observed on the bridge piles in decades does not mean the water coming into Sak or out of the dam is the lowest in that same time frame. The 2011 flood changed things. [/QUOTE]
