Notes

- Lake is frozen but outlet is free flowing
- As Lake Chloride was so high in November,
I tested several inflows to the lake, and they all tested higher
than the lake, even before any snow fall and road salt.
- Even my well water at the house tested higher than the lake.
- If the ground water Cl- is above the lake that explains lake Cl-
- In addition, all our septic systems and softener water goes to the lake
- Data available upon request.
- See attached picture of Veit well readings.
- Even the inflow from the Hollows Conservation Area is higher.
- See attached Hollows readings
- As a Q/C check I tested a strip on Chloride free bottled water
and it did read Zero.
