Lakes Drawdown Update

Editor’s note: The following information regarding the work being performed on Cravath and Trippe Lakes was provided by the City of Whitewater.

Work Schedule for week of January 17-21

  • Monday & Tuesday 7am – 7pm
  • Wednesday – Friday morning 24 hours
  • Friday work to finish by 7pm

Prep Week! This week the contractor will be setting the stage for dredging. This includes laying out the wood matting as well as skinning off the snow and vegetation to allow for more frost to set into the lake bed. Our contractor will be working through the night Wednesday and Thursday to remove as much snow and vegetation from the lake bed surface. The colder temperatures through the later part of the week and weekend will allow for frost to work its way down creating a good base to work on. This will reduce the amount of matting needed to perform the project.
