http://www.tva.gov/lakes/cnh_r.htm check this link its what makes me think they were TVA dams
If Cordell is running 2 generators and one drifts from from the dam to the Caney (4.3 miles) in say an hour all things remaining the same except the number of generators would 1 generator make it a 2 hour drift?
Also when I look at the release numbers for a certain time of day and for 2 hours the discharge was 5300 cubic ft per second and then it changes to 250 cu ft/sec. Is that related to the number of generators on line?
Would 5300 be very turbulent close to the dam but safe boating say within 300 ft and what would 250 look like close to the dam.
5300 cu ft per second seems like a lot of water.
