On Sat. June 5th we had a meeting at our cabin at Acord Lakes to discuss the loss of water in Skutumpah Reservoir due to a sink hole that has developed directly in front of the dam. I have high hopes after the meeting that a co-operative effort will be made to solve the problem and save that very important reservoir.
We also discussed other water losses in the area and probable causes.
I wish to thank all those who participated, especially the following people who took their day off work to be there. It was very much appreciated!
Jason Kling District Ranger, Fish Lake National Forest
Mike Hardley DivisionWildlife Resources, Cedar City Office
Dale Harber Geologist, Manti National Forest

I also wish to thank those that have been so helpful and willing to discuss water issues with me over the past several months but were not able to attend the meeting due to other commitments.
