[Awclist] Rio Chama

[Sara Traub]

Hi Steve and All,
 
I was responding to Tim's question:
 
"Given that the Bureau will try to have a flushing flow (hopefully 5k in a good water year) in the spring, and a limited amount of water, what release flows would you like to see later in the season when there is minimal water in the Rio Grande? Would you rather boat one weekend at 2400cfs or three weekends at 800cfs or 4 weekends at 600cfs? (Or some other flow level)"
 
I was assuming "later in the season" meant August--to do the section below the monastery -- or September after the permit season ends. It seems that the last few years there have been higher releases in August and September.
