an excerpt from today's Echo in regards to the Puntledge:
".....there are ongoing weekly pulse flows every Thursday and Friday to help fish get into the system. "That's for the Chinook salmon," "It will give them a chance to migrate upstream to the spawning beds."
The pulse flows, which each last for 48 hours, will increase the level of the river enough that hydro is advising residents to be cautious in the area during those times.
They will not, however, raise river levels enough to activate the warning system."
