Low reservoir releases and extremely low river flows combined with sustained high air temperatures are leading to water temperatures that are now problematic in the Upper Delaware Rivers.
This has essentially shut down most river related economic activity, and is hurting our area badly at the beginning of the summer season.
Please call and email the individuals listed below NOW and request an immediate water release that will protect the cold water ecosystem of the Upper Delaware Rivers.
You can also tell them a formalized thermal relief program is needed in the next OST/FFMP to address situations like this one.
