A few hours at the South marina today

[Mr. J]

Just a note about the pump. Past low water years a pump has been put in at the same location to provide water to the wetlands; Harold Crane and Rainbow unit. From your description, it sounds like they may be installing a more premiant pipe.

Thanks Richard. It was amazing the amount of gravel or dirt they hauled in there to prepare the area for that pump. We were wondering what they were doing at first but when they brought in the pipe, then the pump, there was no doubt what they were doing. About 18 years ago they brought in a similar pump and put it in the SW corner.

The pump out on the south dike was put in to supply GSL with the fresh water they need. They are allocated shares to help process their extractions from the big lake. There is a pipe under the dike that feeds the canal on the south side of the road just before you get to the south west corner. Interesting that the canal goes right through wet lands but none of it is drawn to flood the wet lands. I remember the pump out there, just cant remember how long ago. Can't remember too much about yesterday either.
