2014 Drought Outreach Workgroup Triggers

These outreach strategies recommended, must have a specific date, flow level, index well level, river condition, or other defined trigger for implementation or distribution.

Purpose of Presentation: To present a draft list of potential specific dates, flow levels, index well levels, river conditions, or other defined visual occurrence to be used by the Implementing Committee to trigger outreach

Next Steps: 1.Workgroup members solicit input from community and others 2.Discuss potential triggers and provide feedback to John Boggess for listing at next meeting 3.At 4/23 meeting, agree to final list of triggers

San Antonio PoolCritical Period Trigger (10-day avg.) Stage 1Stage 2Stage 3Stage 4Stage 5 J-17 level (MSL) <660<650<640<630<625 San Marcos Springs flow (cfs) <96<80N/A Comal Springs flow (cfs) <225<200<150<100<45/40* Withdrawal Reduction 20%30%35%40%44% *San Antonio Pool only. <45 cfs 10-d rolling avg, or <40 cfs 3-d rolling average. Expires >45 cfs for 10-d rolling avg.

Stage 1Stage 2Stage 3Stage 4Stage 5 J-27 level (MSL) N/A<850<845<842<840 San Marcos Springs flow (cfs) N/A Comal Springs flow (cfs) N/A Withdrawal Reduction N/A5%20%35%44% Uvalde Pool enters Stage 2 based on 10-d rolling avg of J27 index wel water level.

San Marcos Springs Flow Regime:  Long-term average: 140 cfs  Minimum 6-month average: 75 cfs  Minimum 1-month average: 52 cfs  Minimum daily average: 45 cfs Comal Springs Flow Regime:  Long-term average: 225 cfs  Minimum 6-month average: 75 cfs  Minimum 1-month average: 45 cfs  Minimum daily average: 30 cfs
