The province has announced that it has increased outflow from the Shellmouth Reservoir, as part of normal operations to draw down reservoir levels in preparation for spring run-off from the upper Assiniboine River.

The outflow has jumped to 400 cubic feet per second from its previous level of 300 cfs.

The increase will also result in a half-foot increase in water levels on the Assiniboine River from Shellmouth to Brandon., but the increase is expected to diminish as the river reaches Winnipeg.
