The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is tasked with managing the Herbert Hoover Dike around Lake Okeechobee, and the water release schedule that is determined by the lake’s water level, and the rainfall outlook. The Corps resumed water releases on Friday after a short break -- this time they’re doing what are called ‘pulse releases’ which are intended to more closely mimic how water would flow from the lake following a big rain event. The idea is to start slow, speed up over time, and then slow down again before stopping. We’re joined by John Campbell, he’s Acting Chief for the Corps' Communications office in Jacksonville.
