Stage Impacts
114.0	Desidnated Flood Stage. Design overflow level for M&T, 3Bs and Goose Lake flood control facilities to divert flood flows into Butte Basin. M&T overflows close River Road from Ord Ferry Road to Chico Road. Ord Ferry Road is already closed.
110.5	Head cuts in 3Bs silt weir start overflow into Butte Basin, flooding dips on Ord Ferry Road West of River Road. Persistent flows at or above this level increase flooding in Butte Basin. Ord Ferry Road and additional roads in Glenn and Colusa counties are closed due to flooding.
