The Placer County Water Agency (PWCA) plans to release boatable flows from Oxbow Reservoir at least on Saturdays and Sundays from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. There will likely be some weekday releases as well, but further details won’t be available at least until May.
Between now and May 23 (Saturday of Memorial Day weekend), we are looking at maintenance flows only, which are currently 200 cfs.
Thanks to Nate Rangel, head of rafting outfitter Adventure Connection, for providing this information. It came from a meeting that PCWA held this week with Nate and two other outfitters, plus a representative from California State Parks.
