Summary: Quick system check, filled wash reservoir, inlets not running.

West Pond
2012-12-06

I arrived about 10:20am. It was cool and mostly overcast with a light breeze from the west. The pond is mostly brown with very little green showing. The inlets were not running but the water level was near the full mark. There are lots of mushrooms ground along the levee.

I did not try restarting the siphon. Winter time flow rate probably could be lower due to less evpotranspiration and rain inputs.

The 7700 wash reservoir was about 3/4 low and I filled it. The 7700 read 2.06ppm and 35 RSSI which increased to 75 after cleaning. The 7500 read: 411ppm CO2, 648 mmol/m3 H2O, 43.8 AGC, 103.1 kPa.
