| right around 830cfs. Looks like it's going up a little with the rain. Ran it last weekend at the same flow and it was good to go. The doldrums had enough water. Offramp was a little scrapy on the last move, but other than that all's well. |

| is that high enough for truss? any way to correlate cfs to stick guage(3')? |

| The stick gauge is a little different in the winter in the sense that no water is being used for irrigation, so most of the water is coming from up top to begin with. I believe the stick was reading at 2.25', which normally would be to low for the Farmlands. Yes, that is high enough for the Truss. |

I've tried to figure the gauge out, but it's below a dam and lord knows the dam guys aren't as reliable as mother nature  ------------- "Don't ask yourself what the world needs.
