EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, April 10, 1955 March Stream Flows nnegBomi oderaft eOy To Seriously Low m Portland (U.R) Stream flows during March were mode rately to seriously low over all the Pacific Northwest, accord ing to the Department of Interior Ceological Survey office here. Record low stream flows for the month were recorded at 13 gauging stations on Northwest streams. Levels of ground water were below average in eight key wells out of the 19 surveyed. The survey showed that some 3,000,000 acre-feet of water was released from storage in seven major power reservoirs in the Columbia system. This compared unfavorably with the 1,105,000 cere-feet released last year. Storage was down about 1,400, 000 from last year. The geological office said Ore gon rivers at which record low flews were recorded were: The Grand Ronde at La Grande: the south fork of the Walla Walla near Milton; the Umatilla near Umatilla, and the John Day at Service Creek. Washington rivers included the Skagit near Concrete and the Snake near Clarkston. In British Columbia, the Sproat River near Alberni was at an all-time March low.

Precipitation during the month was about 50 per rent of average in western Montana and the Cascades 'of Oregon and Washington; about average in southern British Columbia and central Idaho, and 40 to 75 per cent of normal in southern Idaho and central Oregon and Washington.
