LJM77 (OP) User ID: 65223599 United States 02/21/2017 11:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wonder why they didn't just create a second concrete spillway slightly higher than the main spillway for the EO. Why just let the water go down the bank? Quoting: LJM77 and while they are trying to figure out a way to stop this from happening I would have rented a big van and moved as of my stuff as possible. That makes two of us. |

Rather than upgrade California’s water collection and delivery systems, for 50 years state bureaucrats, political appointees and many elected officials focused their priorities on an onslaught of environmental standards, regulations, projects and programs committed to their rose-colored-glasses vision of California. Since 2000, California has passed eight water bonds, but not a single dollar went to replacing the Oroville Dam’s emergency spillway with concrete rather than soil – a defect so serious that three environmental groups demanded its repair in 2005, during the dam’s re-licensing process by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73875512 United States 02/21/2017 12:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lake Oroville: Inflow from storm peaked at 91,000 cfs overnight 8:58 a.m.: Water levels rose slightly overnight at Lake Oroville due to Monday’s storm, although the reservoir was still operating relatively well in the wake of last week’s near-disaster. Inflows spiked at about 91,000 cubic feet of water per second overnight, according to state Department of Water Resources data. The lake level rose about 2 feet, to just under 852 feet. However, that was just slightly above the 850 feet considered appropriate by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood-safety regulations. Sacramento, American rivers well below flood stage downtown 8:45 a.m.: Northern California’s major rivers were behaving themselves Tuesday morning. The Sacramento River and American River were both expected to crest at around 12 feet below flood stage in downtown Sacramento. The Sacramento River was also expected to remain about 3 feet below flood stage at Verona, in the vicinity of the Sacramento International Airport, where a boil was discovered on a levee last week. Dry Creek tops banks, flooding roads and prompting voluntary evacuation 7:50 a.m. Streets in the Rio Linda area were flooded Tuesday as Dry Creek overflowed its banks overnight. The Sacramento County Dept of Water Resources and the County Office of Emergency Services recommended a voluntary evacuation and flood warning Monday for residents along Dry Creek in Rio Linda. Century-old rainfall record broken in Sacramento 7:30 a.m.: A record amount of rainfall fell on Monday in Sacramento. The National Weather Service reported that 1.69 inches of rain was recorded in the official rain gauge near Sacramento State. The steady afternoon rain broke a record of 1.21 set in 1914.
