Sign went up today at Mecca with this warning-

WARNING
DAM TESTING
UPSTREAM
05
October 22-25 and October 28-31
Water Levels &
Flow May Change

At this point I don’t know what this means for fishing, boating and safe access, but this seems to me to be a real bummer and I would like more information to make sure everyone stays safe.
