This is a preliminary report, devoted to capturing the flows for both days as retrieved from the USGS (Jamaica, VT gauge). This is the first two-day release in several years (since the mid-2000s?). We are hoping they will continue, with strong encouragement from American Whitewater and the generous response this year by the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and Vermont Department of Forests, Parks, and Recreation.
