REMARKS - Water years 2014-2019; records good except for estimated discharges, which are poor. The entire high-flow channel length is approximately 0.6 miles and was constructed by the Corps of Engineers in 2008 as an experimental spawning area for the Silvery Minnow. Flows are controlled by the Rio Grande water surface elevation. This channel is designed to start flowing when the flow in the Rio Grande reaches approximately 1,600 ft3/s.
