From email from Reclamation (Kara Lamb):

Today [August 10], we’re dropping releases from Green Mountain Dam to the lower Blue by another 200 cfs. By late this afternoon, flows in the lower Blue should be around 750 cfs. Inflows to Green Mountain Reservoir are dropping off. As we continue to match outflow with inflow, the reservoir water surface elevation is remaining fairly steady at about 2 feet down from full.
