Annual drawdown of Lake Tapps' water level to commence November 1, 2007
Puget Sound Energy, in consultation with the Lake Tapps Community Council, will begin dropping the water level of Lake Tapps on Nov. 1 as part of the reservoir’s annual wintertime drawdown. The community council is urging lakeside residents to remove their boats before the drawdown starts to avoid water craft from becoming stranded on shallow, exposed inlets.
PSE plans to lower the reservoir’s water level about eight feet by the end of January. The traditional drawdown is designed to ensure that waves from severe wintertime storms don’t overtop the reservoir’s dikes. The drawdown also helps to kill milfoil in the lake’s shallower areas and freshen the reservoir’s water quality.
PSE plans to begin refilling the reservoir by about March 1, with the goal of returning the lake to its full, summer-recreation level by mid-April 2008.
