Notes by Martin Balding, General
Manager
NO SPILL REPORT:
The monthly "No Spill" report for March has been made to the
state.
LIFTS STATIONS AND PONDS: Ponds one and two are at the 2.94 foot level, nearing
spill into pond three which hasn't happened in several years. Calculations show that the two HDPE lined
ponds are well within specified water loss requirements. The numbers DO NOT indicate leakage.
LAKE LEVEL: The lake level dropped to a record low of 5,090.55
feet in November and is now just above 5,093 feet, slightly above last year at
this time. This is only the third year in the last sixteen with the lake higher
than the previous year.
PINE CREEK: Pine Creek has been flowing. The DFG has been collecting eggs by electro
shock at the south end of the lake, and from spawning trout at the fish
trap. Visit the fish trap and talk to
Karen Martin.
CORE SAMPLING: Graduate geology students and their advisor from
Cal State University, Long Beach worked on April first collecting core samples,
down twenty feet, from lake sediment at Stones.
Lab work will look at age, sedimentation rates, weather events, plant
and animal traces.
PRECIPITATION: March
blessed us with 3.17 inches of precipitation, and so far April is at 1.4
inches.
STAND BY GENERATOR: Our generator is ready to run.
HOMEOWNER SYSTEMS: One owner had a septic tank replacement due to leakage.
LAHONTAN: No news at this time.
PUBLIC GREEN WASTE: Note: for Buck's Bay and
Stones residents ONLY!
Property
owners have graciously donated a major amount of yard waste, branches, leaves,
slash, etc,. Most of it has been burned
by our Volunteer Firemen.
SOLAR SYSTEM: Since September 2014 the system has
generated 23,800 kWh of electricity with a retail value of $3,332.00. All building heating is done with
electricity.
WATER STORAGE
TANKs: The 3,000
gallon water tanks at Stones is full and ready to use for Fire Service.
COUNTY WELL: A plot plan has been sent to the county and
