The Corps of Engineers have decreased the outflows from Milford Reservoir from 3,000 cubic feet per second to 500 cfs.

The Corps said the decrease is required for them to remain compliant with Phase One flood pool guidance. They have just dropped out of Phase Two.

Substantial releases will require the gauge at Waverly, Misouri to hit 140,000 cfs or less. Currently, Waverly is showing 162,000 cfs. Releases could be bumped back up a bit if inflows increase.

The current Milford Lake elevation is 1163, which is 19-feet above normal pool.
