LeAnn talked to the supervisor and explained who we were with and where we would be testing; he said that was fine as long as we did not enter the actual premises (inside the fence)

    Walkiah Bluff Water Park by pat king

    We chose this site because it was accessible, safe and close to our new home. Our first visit was during a period of record rainfall, the Pearl (we are sampling on the East branch) was at flood stage. Waters cam halfway up the boat launch. We spoke with 3 local residents who told us the "normal" levels were not high enough to launch a boat. We later found out that in the 1990s, a weir was built to divert more water to the East Pearl. The flow was about 85/15 at its best. The weir is now failing, and no agency or organization at local, state federal level are willing to get involved. We believe with the "One Lake" project's green light , this site will no longer be valid.
