From email from Reclamation (Kara Lamb):
The Shoshone power plant water right call came off the Colorado River today [March 29, 2013]. As a result, we were able to cut back releases from Green Mountain to the Lower Blue River. Over two installments, we reduced releases from about 125 cfs to 60 cfs. The first change was made at 11:30, dropping the release to about 100 cfs. The second change was made at 3 p.m. and dropped the release to 60 cfs.
Green Mountain Reservoir is currently about 40% full. The reduction in releases should noticeably slow the draw on the reservoir.
