Missouri River reservoir stores water ahead of flood season
The U S Army Corps of Engineers reports the Missouri River main stem reservoir system held nearly 59 million acre feet, enough for all project functions next year even with dry conditions. Inflows were above normal in the mountains, but plains runoff was light, and December flows were about three fourths normal due to cold, dry weather. Last year shipper movement rose to 3.1 million tons, a 34 percent increase from 1975 and a new record, while main stem power output reached 12.8 billion kWh, about one third above normal.
