DRAFT Viewed strictly from the inflow needs of the lower river, a lesser minimum flow at the spring run could possibly be acceptable if all of the remaining flow was routed to the base of the dam. Scenarios 9 through 11 involve apportioning different amounts of the total 31 cfs average flow between the spring run and the base of the dam, with no removal of water from the system. For example, scenario 9 provides 18 cfs at the spring outfall and 13 cfs at the base of the dam. Scenarios 10 and 11 involve incrementally reducing flow to the spring run and increasing flow at the dam, with final scenario leaving 10 cfs at the spring run and 21 cfs at the dam. The salinity distributions for these scenarios are illustrated in Figures 5-17 through 5-19. Moving additional water to the base of the dam increases the volume of
