Saylorville Lake Water Release Scheduled Tomorrow

The Army Corps of Engineers will be releasing water from Saylorville Lake tomorrow at a rate of 30 cubic feet/second from 9a.m. to 3p.m. tomorrow. A Waterworks spokesperson says the goal is to make sure they can access the Saylorville Reservoir as a source of water for its customers. Plans were drawn up to access the lake 30-years ago, and they've never been put to use, but Waterworks says with the ongoing drought it's time to test the system.
