Thank You Major LaFarr,
The extremely INTERESTING configuration of the Conservation Commission’s Glen Island Gauge coincides with the US Army’s Inspections and Diagrams of the Dam Construction itself.
The Lake George Warriors NOW have a more complete picture of the ACTUAL HISTORY.
D & H Railroad’s Bridge for the Baldwin Line at Lake George gave the Railroad Company GREAT Knowledge of the Man Made Flooding ( DAMMING of LAKE GEORGE )
The Glen Island Gauge and the Natural Lake level coincide.
The TWO Small Release Gates and the Green Mountain Power, Enel Power, International Paper and Power Penstock / System Properties have been determine by the US Army and Stetson Engineering to be 54% Inadequate to control Lake Levels.
ALSO the Dilution is the Solution to Pollution Practices of LOWERING THE LAKE as much as possible in the WINTER TIME as well allows the POWER COMPANIES to Generate Profits LONGER.
Diluting Lake George Pollution allows GREATER PROFITS for ALL PARTIES Generating Revenue. The Dilution of Lake George’s Pollution is as OBVIOUSLY known a LARGE FACTOR to the Claims that Lake George is a DRINKABLE LAKE …. LOL …
Remember folks SEWER WASTE TREATMENT PLANTS …. Treat Sewer Water and Make PUBLIC UTILITY DRINKING WATER from that
NASTY STUFF.
Many Thanks to Major James LaFarr

Subject: Glen Island Ranger Station LAKE GAUGE.
I have some questions regarding the Lake Level Gauge RECORDS for the Glen Island Gauge. And a FOIL Request as follows
SEE State NY Engineer, Surveyor’s and Conservation Commission Records
The Legislative and DEC History along with the State Engineers / Surveyor’s Office reveal the ZERO Level for the Glen Lake Gauge was set 8.32 Feet BELOW the Masonry Crest of DAM “A” at the LaChute River where Lake George empties into the Ticonderoga Creek.
Who has the Old Glen Island Records of the Lake Levels that were taken TWICE Daily on Glen Island ?
The State Engineers and Surveyor’s Records show the TOP of the Gauge was at 8.32 Feet ABOVE the Zero Increment. I’ve also determined the Height of the Dam and the Depths of the MANY Channels in the Natural Stone Ledge just North of NorWal Marina.
All of the Indications reveal Lake George Water Level is 8+ Feet HIGHER than the Natural Level would be IF …. DAM “A” was removed.
SEE
Legislative Document 1921 No 44
State of New York
Report of the State Engineer and Surveyor SEE https://books.google.com/books?id=x8AaAQAAIAAJ&pg=RA1-PA207&dq=Lake+George+NY++Dam+%22A%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjWnqSwgpDbAhWmxFkKHchXBqY4ChDoAQgoMAA#v=onepage&q=Lake%20George%20NY%20%20Dam%20%22A%22&f=false
Also See the Dam Inspector’s Study and Report
The HISTORICAL Records on the Glen Lake Gauge and the Engineering and Surveyor’s reports reveal the ZERO level on the Glen Island Gauge was the Level of the Lake Bed at the Foot of the Masonry Dam “A”.
[PDF]National Dam Safety Program. Lake George Outlet Dam – Defense …
www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a090941.pdf
A structural stability investigation of the dam should be started within. 6 months to …. NAME OF DAM –LAKE GEORGE OUTLET DAM ID# – NY 230. SECTION ….. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers‘ Hydrologic Engineering Center’s. IComputer …
This FOIL is seeking Photo’s Charts, Records, Files associated with the Glen Island Records and the INCREASED Level in Lake George Waters caused by the Flooding BY Dam “A” across the Lake Basin.
See
The D&H Rail Road Owned the Rail Bridge and Dam area at Weedville for decades and indicate the Water level is 8+ Feet Higher as a result of the Dam “A”.
This FOIL request is seeking the records of the Water Level Increase on Lake George caused by Dam “A” which would include the SPRING TIME Conditions associated with SNOW PACK MELT, SPRING RAINS and ICE SHEET Melting.
In closing there also is a Water Seiche on the Lake that causes the SOUTH END ( South LEG ) of the Lake to be somewhat HIGHER than the North end especially during EARLY SPRING MELT. The Water Seiche records would also be requested.
As an Historical Note very large areas of NORTHERN QUEENSBURY have been Flooded and Submerged as a result of the Artificial Heightening of Lake George Caused by Dam “A”.
It is ALSO Crystal Clear that the Property where the Dam was Built and the ” Stream Bed ” as well as the ” RIGHT ” to control the Lake Level has always VESTED with New York State. Succinctly Stated …. New York State has since the Beginning of New York State had the Lawful Control of the Lake Level.
The Paper Mills and Electrical Companies and Mills NORTH of Dam “A” utilized the Horsepower Of The State’s Water and as such I am as well to understand the BIG Steam Ship Companies used the Greater Depths to Float Larger and Deeper Draft Vessels on the Lake.
Your Records regarding the Raised Lake Levels …. Winter Time Draw Downs and the Flooding of Northern Queensbury caused by Dam “A” are herein requested.
Thank You
