Upper red line - This line is reached when the Kinneret is full (maximum capacity). When this level is reached, the Dganya Dam is opened, allowing water to pour into the River Jordan.

The last time the Degania Dam was opened was 32 years ago

Lower red line - The line height is 213.0 meters below sea level. According to ecology experts, when the water level drops below this line it triggers damage to ecological balance. and water quality begins to decline.

If water in the lake falls to this level, it is forbidden to pump or use water from the Kinneret.

Historical minimum water level - This level is below the pipes, so taking water from Lake Kinneret actually becomes impossible.
