Today at approximately 3:00pm the Corp closed the bunger valve! Don't know why or for how long but at this posting the river is wadeable. The lake is at 540.64 and Langley is running at about 5 1/2 feet. Only reason I can think of as to why they stopped is Camden hit flood stage on the Ouachita today and the Lil' Mo' was dumping a lot of water in there. Be careful, they might start back at any moment!!
Yep! That's usually what determines the unexpected shut offs. Downriver and even to the Ouachita gets too high and they'll shut it down!
Most unexpected shut down I ever saw was when a stolen vehicle was driven into the river down stream somewhere! They shut it down in a heartbeat!!! 😏
