They <br /> were 55.5 and 54.5 Ft. above sea level. There were 16 and 13.5 inches of water flowing over the board <br /> closest to the lake, and 15.5 and 16 inches of water in the stream by the stairs. From mid-September to <br /> mid-October, there were 11.7 inches of rain in Barbara's rain gauge. Levels were reported to Drew <br /> McManus in Conservation. Drew emailed on October 16"' after we reported a level of 55.5 asking if he <br /> should remove aboard or just watch the level closely. By then, the level had dropped so we are just <br /> closely monitoring the level. Precipitation is increasing again. <br /> Conclusions: With high precipitation, the lake levels are higher than usual for this time of year. <br /> [Agenda topic 2] Boat Ramp Repair <br /> Discussion: Scraping at the ramp with a long excavator is complete. The funding from the State is not <br /> available at this time, although the ramp remains on their list for repair. <br /> Conclusions: Scraping of the ramp is complete. Job not completed as State funding not available. <br />
