Bob and Theresa (Dimick) are vacationing at our camp this week and noticed the water level in the pond has gone down considerably in spite of last night's rain. Theresa let us know this morning and we called Green Mountain Power and talked to John Voyer. He who told us the men working on the penstock noticed late in the afternoon yesterday that the water level was lower than it was supposed to be and found there was apparently a glitch with the rubber dam. They switched the dam to manual operation last night and believe the water level has been stabilized and should be coming back up, especially with the rain we had last night. (I measured .71 in.), but John said because there are three different bodies of water, the level could be different in each of them and it will take time to level off. He would be interested in knowing of any further drop - or rise in water level in any of the ponds.
We'll keep you posted on any further developments - if any.
