Outflow from Norman Dam increased again


The Lake of the Woods Control Board has authorized another increase in outflow from the
Norman Dam into the Winnipeg River.

Outflow will be increased 360 cubic meters per second later today.

This is the second such increase in two days, as the Control Board tries to keep water
levels from rising too fast.

The lake rose four inches over the past week and is expected to rise by as much as six inches
over the next couple of days.
