Does anybody happen to know how to covert or have an idea what 1630 cubic feet per second (CFS) would equate to in dam gates open?
I suppose it may be different at different dams, but generally around here, they all seem about the same COE dams.
I'm guessing 2 or 3... but that's just guessing.

Don't know gates.
It is 731594.81 gallons per minute or 12,190 gallons per second.

Those gates are barely cracked open a few inches. Each gate can be raised much higher, probably close to 4 ft. Maybe higher than that.
