Coralville Reservoir drought plan takes effect
Drought conditions in the Iowa River Basin prompt the Coralville Reservoir to raise its conservation pool by 3 feet to 683 feet and limit outflow to 150 cfs. Officials aim to boost the reserve pool while keeping downstream flows steady, amid forecasts of above normal heat and below normal rainfall. Highlights include siltation, historical water declines, and strong visitor activity at the reservoir through July.
