August 9, 2024

Well, we started the week with a short-lived 185 CFS release.  Today, we have a 1200 CFS release, to be increased to 2100 CFS at 9:00 PM tonight (8/9).  Several inches of rain over the span of just a few hours today sent a considerable amount of stained runoff into the river, quickly sending the Pineville gauge to about 1760 CFS from it's earlier 1330 CFS. Given today's rainfall the dam release is currently scheduled to increase tonight at 9:00 PM from the current 1200 CFS to 2100 CFS.   Water temperatures continue to remain in the low to mid 70's. - CLOSURE NOTICE: With a scheduled dam release exceeding 2000 CFS, DSR will be closed for fishing tomorrow (8/10) and will be open for office hours only from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.  Please monitor safewaters.com/facility/lighthouse-hill for updated dam release scheduling and information.
