Roosevelt Lake Water Level Management

operational with contingency planning

Roosevelt Lake, the Salt River's largest reservoir, is experiencing one of its worst starts in years with its capacity down to 43% due to back-to-back seasons of record-low winter runoff. Salt River Project officials are prepared to manage the dropping water levels and have contingency plans in place, especially with the upcoming routine maintenance lowering of Canyon Lake dam this fall, which Roosevelt Lake will need to refill in winter.
