[QUOTE="Allen, post: 416353, member: 389"] This is just another example of the Corps using the cards dealt them to "rebalance" the system. Sakakawea received bonus runoff from the unexpectedly generous late spring rains and rose a fair bit more than expected. The water wasn't passed on down through the system for a number of reasons. First, they didn't/don't need/want the water now in the Mississippi and lower Missouri for flood concerns, and secondly electric power generating orders were probably already expecting lower flows, so no reason to release water that's not generating revenue.
