Fontana Update: We've increased releases from Fontana Dam to help bring the reservoir down to normal summertime levels. Water is now being released from both spillway tunnels at a rate of 16,700 cubic feet per second (125,250 gallons per sec.). We are also releasing water through the dams generating turbines. We anticipate using the spillway tunnels through mid to late next week. #Fontana #ncwx | Tennessee Valley Authority

Our dam safety crews successfully tested the spillway gates at Fontana Dam to ensure they work properly under full lake conditions. About 74,000 gallons of water per second was released down the spillway tunnel during each test. Our top priorities are keeping our dams performing well and the communities near them safe. #FontanaDam #DamSafety | Tennessee Valley Authority
