Idaho backs Snake River flow cut to fill Brownlee Dam
Idaho Gov. John V. Evans said the state supports Idaho Power Co. in asking the Federal Power Commission to waive minimum Snake River flows starting April 5. The plan would reduce flow from 13 000 cfs to 5 000 cfs to help fill Brownlee Dam and reduce a projected energy shortfall. The move is backed by state utilities and drought agencies, with reevaluation set for July 1 and possible variations for fish migration and downstream needs. Evans acknowledged recreation loss but framed it as a necessary trade-off amid forecasts of up to 10 percent energy shortfalls.
