I’m part of one of the groups/agencies mobilized to support DWR at Oroville. Plenty up to date - with boots on site info you can’t glean from people’s interpretations standing back and looking at photos. This isn’t my first rodeo.
Good for you. I wish you well my friend.
What do you know about the condition/situation
with the hydroelectric part of the actual dam itself?
Information indicates the increased river level
has put that out of commission.
I have not been able to find any numbers for
how much water could move through there when it is operating.
The lake is only down 25 ft below the top and they’re already talking about reducing the main flow. Oh well.
Any idea why they’re not using the NG’s Chinook helicopters? Seems those heavy lift monsters would be the best fit to the job.
