Water Order FAP25-24

From USBR: We're going to decrease the release from Twin by 50 cfs at 08:00 this morning to take advantage of the bump in flows at Wellsville from the rains. This will let us store a little more VFMP for later in the season. After the gate operation, we'll be releasing 232 cfs- 140 cfs of project, less than 1 of accounts and the rest native.
