WHITE WATER RELEASES FOR 2019

( As per the Francis E. Walter Reservoir Recreation Operations Plan for 2019) 

The plan, developed in partnership with Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission, and the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, lists dates and release amounts for whitewater and fisheries releases for the 2018 recreation season. Water will again be allocated to ensure whitewater releases from July to late August and fisheries releases from July to early September.  Seasonal precipitation and water accumulation will be used for releases later in the season (late August through mid-October).

Planned dates (22) for Fishing Releases (target 400 cubic feet per second) are:
March 2, 3, 

March 9. 10, 

March 16, 17,

**The October 12-13 release is intended to provide a means of releasing any excess water that may have accumulated during the recreation season. This is the last added increment for the 2019 recreation plan.

        Late season white water, fishing and fisheries enhancement releases are dependent

upon precipitation and water accumulation.  All dates are dependent on hydrologic conditions and the absence of the need for flood control operations.
