Abstract: . . . sample of the region's major watersheds: the upper Sacramento, Feather, Yuba, and American rivers, which produce inflow to some of California's largest reservoirs - the source of much of our water supply. The eight stations are: Blue Canyon, Brush Creek Ranger . . . . . . uses, including power and profit generation, low-cost energy delivery, grid support and system reliability. A reliable estimate of hydroelectric generation in a large region cannot be based on a single indicator, gage, or model. This snapshot summary relies on . . . . . . utilities. Monthly updates to this report are planned for March through May. Jim Woodward, Energy Specialist (916) 654-5180, jwoodwar@energy.state.ca.us 3 Figure 2.
