No.Branch Potomac Release May 24-25

Post by Katherine »

A whitewater release from Jennings Randolph Lake is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, May 24th and 25th, 2025. The release is scheduled to be 1,000 cfs from 10AM to 4PM each day.

Please note that an impending rain system is being monitored for mid-week in the North Branch Potomac watershed. Depending on how the rain materializes, some adjustments to the timing and amount of the release may need to be made. Updates to the timing, ramping, and amount of flow will be posted on the North Branch Potomac release forecast webpage (link below) later this week.

The 2025 release schedule for Jennings Randolph Lake and Savage River Dam has been posted on the public website: https://www.nab-wc.usace.army.mil/nab/northBranch.html.

This page also includes three-day projections for release rates for Jennings Randolph Lake and Savage River Dam. Scroll down to find the recreational release schedule. The three-day release projections are also available via voice recording at 410-962-7687.

This information is subject to change as hydrologic conditions dictate.
