Spillway release

May 5, 2022: Spillway releases are currently being made into Beaver Tailwater (White River below Beaver Dam) in Northwest Arkansas. Spillway releases from the Dam are currently around 43,000 cubic feet per second. Although the US. Army Corps of Engineers considers this a non-damaging release, if you live below the dam, please continue to watch the river levels using their smart phone app or the water control page of their website. The app can be found in the Google and App store by searching USACE LittleRock and on their website at https://www.swl-wc.usace.army.mil/.../tabular/htm/beaver.htm

If the area receives more rainfall, it is likely that larger releases may need to made.
