The Lower Colorado River Authority announced Lake Travis will reopen at 8 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7. The LCRA also said in a release Lakes LBJ and Marble Falls will remain closed until at least Friday, Nov. 9 due to “debris and unsafe conditions caused by the recent flooding. LCRA will reevaluate conditions on Friday, but in the meantime property owners are allowed on the closed lakes only to recover or secure damaged property, provided the location of the property is known." LCRA also stated that the remaining open floodgates at Mansfield and Tom Miller dams, should be closed on or about Wednesday. Data from LCRA’s Flood Operations Report show that Lake Travis is below 683 feet mean sea level as of 11 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 6. Lake Travis is at 100 percent capacity at 681 feet msl, and LCRA data state that levels are expected to fall to a range of between 683 and 681 feet msl by Wednesday. The waters have been slowly receding following long-lasting rains that began picking up momentum Oct. 15. Days later state and local officials declared Travis County a disaster area, and Lake Travis crested 704 feet msl by Oct. 20, one of its highest levels since data has been recorded. Recovery efforts are now underway in Travis County to rebuild and repair after recent flooding. Travis County Chief Emergency Management Coordinator Eric Carter said on Oct. 30 that the county has identified about 400 structures affected by the floods.
