to remain near its current level of
about 1,008 feet above mean sea
level. Lake Travis, which was at
665.5 feet above mean sea level in
early November, is expected to drop
about one to two inches per week
without additional rainfall.
Some water continues to be re-
leased from Lake Travis to ensure
there is enough flow in the river
downstream of Austin to protect
aquatic life, as required in the Water
Management Plan. If dry weather
continues through the winter, the
river below Austin is projected to
be lower than normal. However, the
LCRA will continue to meet mini-
mum stream flow requirements.

about 326,000 gallons, or what an

LCRA officials stress that there
is no water shortage in the High-
land Lakes. However, there is little
water flowing into the lakes and

Amid continuing dry conditions
and reduced lake levels, the Lower
Colorado River Authority has called
on Colorado River water users to
conserve water voluntarily.
The LCRA has issued the call for
conservation because the combined
volume of lakes Travis and Bucha-
nan has dropped below a “trigger"
level of 1.6 million acre feet of wa-
ter.
LCRA’s state-approved Water
Management Plan required the
LCRA to ask Colorado River water
users to begin voluntary conserva-
tion when the 1.6 million figure is
reached for the two lakes. This vo
lume corresponds to about 75 per-
cent of LCRA’s total water supply
