Work Schedule for week of January 24-28

Monday & Tuesday – 10 a.m. Monday through the evening as needed

Wednesday – Friday – 7 a.m. – 7 p.m. – anticipate hauling in and out of Trippe Lake (weather dependent).
The first week of the dredging process was to prep the lakes and has been weather dependent. This week, in order to safely drive the hauling trucks and machinery on the lakes, the ground must have at least 18 inches of frost. Because of the cold weather we have been experiencing, we are very close to hitting that number and anticipate hauling trucks on the lake later this week. Crews may work later into the evening to benefit from the colder weather. If the ground has not frosted over enough to safely drive on, mats will be laid out for clearing and building additional routes. Trippe Lake is freezing quicker than Cravath allowing for crews to work on Trippe this week and plan to begin working on hauling routes on Cravath in the upcoming week.
