LAKEPORT, Calif. – This week the Board of Supervisors will hold a workshop to discuss satellite analysis of Clear Lake and the watershed, and plan to honor a longtime county employee on his retirement.
The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 27, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport. It will be broadcast live on TV8.
At 9:10 a.m., the board will present a proclamation honoring Senior Deputy County Counsel Robert Bridges for his years of county service.
Bridges is retiring after 35 years with the county.
At 10 a.m., Water Resources Director Scott De Leon will bring a discussion to the board regarding the satellite image analysis of Clear Lake and its watershed by Blue Water Satellite Inc.
The board approved a contract with the firm on Jan. 8 and received an update on the project on July 16, at which time the board asked to have workshops on specific details of the work.
The Tuesday informational workshop, which doesn't require any action by the board, “is intended to provide information on how this project could be used to evaluate processes in the lake that result in impaired water quality due to aquatic weed and nuisance cyanobacteria blooms,” according to a brief written report to the board by De Leon.
In untimed items, the board will consider appointments to the Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee and Middletown Area Town Hall.
They also will discuss a request for an administrative encroachment permit for the Splash-In seaplane event, as well as a request for a waiver of the $665 permit fee.
