“As always, please use the forecasts as guidelines and know that the forecasts only consider rain that has been received on the ground and does not consider projected or forecasted rainfall,” the release said. “As a result, the forecasts are subject to change.”

As the lake has been affected by rain fall, the Army Corp continues to make stakeholders aware of its flood control efforts.

“As you are all aware there are numerous competing stakeholder interests involving Lake Texoma although flood control, water supply, hydroelectric power, regulation of Red River water flows, improvement of navigation, and recreation are the official project purposes there are many other stakeholder interests that are taken into consideration,” the release said. “USACE team members strive to make the best resource decisions based on what is best for the mission, the Nation, and the public, understanding impacts to all stakeholders.”
