Those recreating in or near the on this part of the river are advised to be aware of the higher flows and to exercise caution. The higher flows, known as “pulse flows,” are done to mimic higher flows that would normally occur dur- ing typical winters and flush out sediment. PG&E will gradually increase water flows to 1,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) out of the Rock Creek Dam, holding the higher flows for 12 hours, between 1 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 28, and continuing until about 1 p.m. that day before gradually reducing flows to 150 cfs. PG&E will also increase flows below the Cresta Dam, starting by gradually increasing flows before dawn on Sunday, Feb. 28 and release 1,000 cfs between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. that day before gradually reducing flows that night to 100 cfs. The two higher flows will be present along 15 miles of river between the Rock Creek Dam and the Cresta Powerhouse along Highway 70 in the Plumas National Museums have continued to expand their collections to offer new content for virtual exhibitions.
