GBRA Cuts Canyon Dam Outflow From 614 to 300 cfs
GBRA reduced Canyon dam outflow from 614 to 300 cubic feet per second as inflow remains low. David Welsch of the Guadalupe Blanco River Authority said limited rainfall means less water entering the reservoir and less to release. Officials will adjust outflow as inflow varies, hoping for 800 to 1000 cfs to restore reservoir levels.
