In many cases, depending on the minimum road <br />elevation, only a portion of the storage area would be flooded. Once the major flood crest passed, <br />the stand pipe canal gate would be partially opened, and the stored water would be slowly <br />released to minimize erosion and flooding of downstream ditches. The release of water from <br />various storage areas would be coordinated to reduce flood crests downstream. Based on field <br /> <br />]0 <br />
