what is the max cfs for the repaired spillway?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77646013


DWR says it's rated to 270k CFS, but I don't think anyone actually believes that, that high a rate would blow up the feather river below.

They also say that it should never have to run above 160k CFS, even that, it'd likely blow apart a levee or 3 down below.

The have never actually run it above 25k CFS and when they did, they shut it down pretty quickly. Speculation as to why abounds.
