At optimum operations, the eight generators at Glen Canyon Dam are capable of producing 1,320 megawatts of power.
Water releases from the dam occur at 200-230 feet below the surface of Lake Powell at full pool.
Temperature: Year round temperatures of 45 degrees F to 50 degrees F.
Since the signing of the final operating criteria in February 1997, powerplant releases do not exceed 25,000 cfs, other than during HFE's or emergency situations, and have most often averaged between 10,000 cfs and 20,000 cfs.
