Recent modifications to the Vallecito Dam outlet works structure have caused increased turbulence near the outlet works flow measurement device, making flow measurements unreliable. In addition, no accurate measure of flow through the spillway radial gates has ever existed. Consequently, the flow quantity passing Vallecito Dam is unknown. The purpose of the Vallecito Study was to determine the best method of obtaining an accurate measurement of flows passing the dam, both through the outlet and over the spillway.
