[QUOTE="Colt45, post: 155630, member: 1693"] Is the Army Corps of Engineers in charge of this damn?? If so, its definitely not their fault, no way anyone saw this coming. Nothing to worry about though......... On February 11, 2017 Lake Oroville flowed over the emergency spillway for the first time since the dam's construction in 1968.[SUP][SIZE=2] [/SIZE][/SUP]Because the spillway is a separate structure from the dam, there wasn't any real danger of the main embankment being breached. The dam's structure itself continued holding and no damage was found, and the possible evacuation of Oroville itself was not being considered as there was no threat to public safety. [/QUOTE]
