Good afternoon,

Below are planned releases from HHWP facilities the week of June 26^th. Releases are being increased this week to manage a forecasted uptick in reservoir inflows due to the forecasted above normal temperatures this weekend.

We strive to keep the user community updated on projected flows on the Tuolumne River. Flows will continue to vary significantly over the coming weeks as snowmelt runoff progresses.

Stated flow rates are best estimates and are subject to change as conditions and operational constraints evolve.

Hetch Hetchy Reservoir

Total flows below O’Shaughnessy were increased to approximately 6,200 cfs late morning today, June 27^th

Additional increases possible as the week progresses and forecast become more precise.
Releases likely to increase 8000 cfs this weekend as forecasted OSH inflows peak.

Kirkwood Powerhouse

Spill of approximately 480 cfs from 19:00-08:00
Little to no spill expected 08:00-19:00

Cherry Reservoir

Total flows below Cherry have been increased to approximately 800 cfs today, June 26^th

Additional increases likely as the week progresses and forecast become more precise.
Releases to increase to ~1000 cfs tomorrow 6/28.

Holm Powerhouse

Approximately 100-200 cfs 08:00-17:00
Significantly increased flows from 17:00-08:00

Approximately 500-980 cfs 17:00-08:00

Lake Eleanor

Valve releases of 600+ cfs
Current spill approximately 200-400cfs to increase to approximately 1000 cfs this late this weekend
Current total flow below Eleanor approximately 800-1,000cfs to increase to ~1600 cfs by late this weekend

*NOTE: At current flow rates, USGS Tuolumne R below Early Intake stream gage is suspected to be overreporting by up to approx. 500-600 cfs

This gage is used in the virtual Meral’s Pool calculation

Any significant changes to the schedule will be posted on the bulletin board.
