Norfork Dam

Full generation is 7,200 cfs (SWPA). Estimated from flow through the turbines. The actual units running may differ.

2 generating units · 80 MW nameplate capacity. Nameplate capacity and the published scheduling reference can differ.

Southwestern Power Administration posts schedules each afternoon. Its “hour ending” labels describe the preceding hour; Eddy displays the start of each interval.

Every day uses the same chart scale: 92 MW of scheduling capacity, so different days can be compared.

Times describe the dam. Water arrives downstream later; the delay depends on location. Schedules can change without notice as power demand, inflow, outages and operating needs change.

Check posted warnings and local operating information before entering the water below a dam. No generation scheduled does not mean no water is being released.
