AREA B - Area B is three small patches of material that were barely exposed <br />with the lake lowered four feet. This area does not pose a danger to navigation. <br />Area B is not a recommended priority. <br /> <br />AREA C - Because it is a hazard to navigating the lake, excavating Area C to a <br />minimum depth of 3 feet is a recommended priority. It is further <br />recommended that the erosion form Cemetery Point, adjacent to this area, is <br />corrected prior to the excavation of Area C. <br /> <br />AREA D - All of the channels in Area D still had water with the lake lowered by <br />two feet. This area is not receiving a high amount of sediment. The culvert under <br />Highway 10 is filtered through a grassy channel that should not be disturbed. <br />There are, however, parts of Area D where it is anticipated that property owners <br />will want to improve their access. These areas will not improve the lake for the <br />general public and, therefore, should not be publicly funded. However, the city <br />could include these areas in our permit to help these private property owners <br />through the bureaucracy. Area D is not recommended as a priority. <br /> <br />AREA E - Area E is a storm sewer outlet south of City Hall. A pad for a back- <br />hoe to operate from could be built adjacent to this area to accommodate removal <br />of materials from this site now and in the future. However, there is not a lot of <br />material that needs removal at this time. Area E is not a recommended priority. <br /> <br />AREAS F &G - These areas were only exposed when the lake was lowered by <br />four feet and access to these areas will be extremely difficult. Areas F & G are <br />not recommended as priorities. <br /> <br />Area H - Except for the area directly adjacent to the shore, most of Area H was <br />not exposed with the lake lowered by two feet. Further, this area of the lake is <br />adjacent to Highway #10 and is used very little by the public. Area H is not a <br />recommended priority. <br /> <br />AREA I - This area is perhaps the most difficult to remove material from because <br />it is muck. A mass improvement to this area will not add a lot of benefit for the <br />general public and will probably be quite costly. There are no disposal sites <br />adjacent to this area. Limited access to this area is achievable via a city storm <br />sewer easement. <br /> <br />It may be advisable to just provide better access to the homes in this location. <br />Access is limited in the very northeast corner of Area I (the portion that was <br />exposed when the lake was two feet low). There is approximately 650 feet of <br />shoreline that would need to be dredged to accommodate this better access. <br /> <br />A sedimentation basin should also be considered adjacent to the storm sewer <br />outlet in this area. If a sedimentation area is created, it should be in a location that <br /> <br />~hrdoc\b&z~tever\lakeocc.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
