Oroville Dam Spillway 2-18-17 9:10am More Rain
I’d like to see some video of the action or inaction at the bottom of the spillway where they are trying to (I think) dredge out the river back towards the dam in preparation of running the generating units. I think they can pass about 17,000 GPM through the 3 units. There were also some bypass valves of some sort that I read about earlier, but those may have been damaged a few years ago and might not be available.
