Rating 6.0 is the same as 5.0 above the break point of 2.48ft, as QM 149 just above the break satified rating 5.0 within it's uncertainty rated. No high-end measurements were made during the period due to office travel restriction due to Covid-19 epidemic. The low end was modified signicantly; based on measurements the sectional control was likely scoured in April 2020 during ice-out or high-water. Rating 6.0 was drawn as a best fit through open water measurements 150-152 and 154-155. Rating 6.0 was only drawn to cover the high/low stage for the period, as the control continues change annually at this site. Rating 6.0 was started hard during the April 14 during high water event when flows were above the area changed, so the transition is smooth.
