    Missouri River Water Management Spring Public Meeting 2025

    Spring public meetings to discuss Missouri River Water Management operations and plans were held April 1 and 3, 2025. Spring public meetings provide a status of mountain snowpack, a runoff forecast for the year, and how operations during the runoff year will meet the authorized purposes for the Missouri River Mainstem System. Meetings were held virtually due to travel restrictions. Updates include a discussion from the National Weather Service regarding mountain snowpack, lingering drought and the System's ability to capture runoff and how releases will be made to serve the authorized purposes.
