No, it’s the State of Cakifornia’s fault. They built, own and operate the dam. A simple math model would show that with inflows exceeding outflows the res would soon be filled to the brim. The controlled spillway was designed for 250k cfs. Only yesterday did they bump the outflow from 60k to 100k. They have had a month at least to be working on maintaining reserve capacity in the reservoir. Check out the daily outflow rate over the last two months. Yesterday they finally hit the panic button. Poor management of their resource.
