Fwd: [Trinity Releases] Change Order - Lewiston Dam

[Trinity River Restoration Program]

For Immediate Release

August 14, 2025

Contact: Kiana Abel, Public Affairs Specialist, 530-623-1800

The Bureau of Reclamation will begin to increase releases from Lewiston Dam to the Trinity River beginning Friday, Aug. 22 in support of the Hoopa Valley Tribe bi-annual Boat Dance Ceremony held in Hoopa, California.

Beginning Aug. 22, Lewiston Dam releases are scheduled to gradually increase from the summer base flow of 450 cubic feet per second and are expected to reach a peak release of 2,300 cfs on Aug. 25 before returning to summer base flows on Aug. 30.

River recreators can expect a higher volume of water and increased turbidity in the Trinity River during the ceremonial flow. As always, the public is urged to exercise caution when recreating in or around the Trinity River.

The hourly change order is included in the forwarded message below.
