    Default Truman Tailrace Question


    I know there are some tailrace fishermen on here..hoping someone can help me out. I am trying to figure out how much water the are releasing. I found the corps of engineers site where they post the next days estimated release - http://www.swpa.gov/gen/tue.htm

    For tomorrow, they are estimating:

    HR HST
    1 90
    2 90
    3 90
    4 90
    5 90
    6 120

    7 120
    8 120
    9 120
    10 120
    11 120
    12 90

    13 90
    14 90
    15 90
    16 90
    17 120
    18 120

    19 120
    20 120
    21 120
    22 120
    23 90
    24 90

    TOT 2520

    My question is this - how much water is that? What is full generation / half genration, etc...

    I live in Columbia, and really only want to make the drive if they are running water pretty good. I am just trying to get a better idea of how much water these numbers represent. And just for fun - what is the max? - full generation. full spillways...

    Not sure how those number add up. Here is a number you can call and get the lake level for Truman and LOZ also water temp and it will tell you how much water they are releasing. 660-438-2836 When the recording starts hit 2 and it will direct you to another recording with the info about water levels.

    USGS Water Data for the Nation is another site you can use it can show youthe lake level and if they are drawing water,if the lake is on a fast rise good luck,the water will go up faster than they can let it out.
