MOPanfisher Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 The max elevation was to have been 859.5. I will try to post up this afternoon the status of the work etc. after a conference call concerning the rising lake level. Stay tuned.
DChance Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I would also love a report on water conditions.......looks like the fishing could be tough this weekend
MOPanfisher Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Lake temp at fishing dock below COE office, 40 degrees F., river in Outlet Park was the same 40 degrees. Lake is rising currently at 843.70. Water on upper ends will be muddy from inflows. Per conversations with contractor we are going to try to "accelerate" their schedule as much as possible, with good weather should be able to complete the work in the stilling basin itself in 4 wks or less with good weather. Will continue to let lake rise to elevation of 850.0, if it gets that high we will be watching the forecasts very closely, if it hits 855.00 then we will likely give the contractor notice to vacate the stilling basin, with any luck it won't happen. The engineers give a 35% chance of reaching 851 by end of month with "normal" parameters. Hopefully by April 15 we will once again be dumping water down the river and lowering the lake. Will try to update as project moves along.
DChance Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Anybody seen what the water looks like since the rain? I assume muddy up the arms?
MOPanfisher Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Muddy past Nemo Bridge on Lindly side, not sure how far on the Pomme side, guess at least to 83 Marina. Lake at 844.19 today.
