Drain and repair. They have decided to sacrifice the main spillway in order to allow repair to the auxiliary spillway.
Water level is down as they await rain onThursday
Not so sure they decided to sacrifice the main spillway, they have no choice. If they didn't open it the emergency spillway would fail.
The main spillway is eroding it's way up towards the gates. If it reaches the gates a massive failure will happen.
If you look at photos of when the sinkhole first appeared on the main spillway and compare it to recent pic's you will see it's working it's way up towards the gates.
I am sure they core drilled the entire ridge before they built the dam and know exactly where and how deep the bedrock is.
Keep in mind the storms aren't over and the spring run off hasen't even started.
This is not over by a long shot.
