Channel opened at 10:00 AM. Stop Gate repair needed/ 1:00 PM Water first began to flow south of NGSR at about 6:00 PM

5/22/09

XXX

At 9:00 AM no water was observed flowing through culverts at CTH I or Daley Rd. At 11:00 AM the marker along CTH V indicated the water level had been reduced by about 1" inch- stop gate & channel looked good, and that flow was probably at about 4-5 CFM at channel near stop gate. Observed water beginning to flow under CTH I & Daley Rd at about 2:00 PM.- heavier at 5:00 PM Stop gate and system good at 6:00 PM

observed release rate increased and flow under and around stop gate. Alan Kubly had employee add stone to slow release rate from field. Engineer John Belken was called and responded to observe concern. Mr. Belken and I made temporary repairs to stop gate. Flow rates observed downstream: CTH I +12", Daley Rd + 8", Cuba Valley Rd + 4", Easy Street & 2". Took Chairman Muxfeld for a relief channel & area tour.

Release rate reducing- moved a few stones at field release point to increase rate a little. Checked level at other area high water ponds and observed: WIBU -1", Hahn Road - 1" Attorney John Mitby stopped at office- I took him for a tour of the drainage area and relief channel

Closed flow to a trickle at 3:00 PM in anticipation of possible significant rain events later in the evening. Met on site with Engineers Belken & McKenna. Water elevation confirmed as 3" lower by survey Inst. Discussed possible changes to improve stop gate. McKenna and I looked at all the markers.. Flow level markers indicate similar flow to 5/23/09 flows. Reduction markers suggest ponds along Hahn Rd & WIBU are reducing at about the same rate as the CTH V pond area.

Flow remained stopped all day. Met with Engineers Belken & McKenna to discuss adjustment to increase flow rate on 5/28/09 and about changes to the stop gate after level is reduced several more inches. It appears that the water level at CTH V & Patton has increased by about 1" (or double the rain amount in the past 24 hrs) since the flow was stopped

Flow was resumed at about 10:00 AM. Flow was increased to about 3/4 of culvert opening below gate. Water over Norway Grove School Road has increased in length and depth to point road is impassable. Will attempt to contact Jeremy Balousek/ Dane Cty/ about turning on 6" pump in pit north of NGS Road. Was able to contact Dan Everson/ Dane Cty Planning/ about turning on pump/ he was okay with doing so. Approved turning on a 4" water pump for the MS&G pond north of NGS Road at 4:30 PM

Met with, and provided area tours to, Dave Cole (Crop Consultant), Kevin Connors and Jeremy Balousek (Dane Cty Water Resources) of the area in and around the CTH V & Patton Road area this morning. Water level indicators showed level down 2 additional inched at about 11:00 AM this morning. At 6:00 PM most of CTH V, and all of the center line, were dry and above water. Flow was regulated at about 75% of culvert opening near gate- in addition to 4"inch pump from MS&G pond. Water level at the Madigan Rd & Hahn Road pond area, north of CTH V, also was recorded as being down about 4" inches
