DROUGHT CONDITIONS ON BRAZOS RIVER
A lack of spring rains has taken its toll on the Brazos River basin this year causing the stream flow in the lower Brazos River to hit record lows.
“The Brazos River Authority and the US Army Corps of Engineers will begin making releases from reservoirs to meet downstream water supply needs,” said David Wheelock, manager of water services for the Authority. “These releases are made to provide water to downstream water customers. An important benefit of these releases is to increase flows, which also helps to maintain the health of the river ecosystem.” For information on river and reservoir levels throughout the Brazos River basin, click here.
