More on Youghiogheny Flows During 2012
One of the years of specific interest is 2012. This is the year when the lower rule-band was violated a number of times because of the very dry weather and the various mandatory releases specified in Brookfield's permit with MDE.
The USGS gage data from the Hoyes Run gage station were downloaded and the flow-rates measure there were plotted for each of the 12 months. The graphs are shown in the figures listed below for easy visualization of the flow spikes coming from the releases from the dam.
