Ruedi balancing storage
Ruedi Reservoir stores water on the Fryingpan River and provides balancing context for the Fryingpan-Arkansas Project. Its operating picture is defined by a broad active-conservation pool above a narrow inactive and dead-storage range.
Start with the current band, then compare elevation and storage direction. Because the top of inactive storage and top of dead storage are only 26 feet apart, movement near those references deserves closer attention than the same change high in the active pool.
