“Our Wyoming Area Office has notified us today that they will be making additional increases in releases from Boysen Dam to control the reservoir’s rate of fill.  We will be stepping up our releases to the Bighorn River in a similar fashion so we can hold our current reservoir elevation and remain favorably poised to intercept the rule curve in early June. 

This means we will be increasing our releases to the Bighorn River to 3,000 cfs on Thursday, May 6 and then increasing to 3,250 cfs on Friday, May 7.  Further adjustments may be necessary this coming week. “
