I spoke to someone from Wetlands in Concord last year and he claimed that he didn't know there was a level marker under the Weirs Bridge. At the time the marker showed about 2 inches below "full Lake" and the person I spoke to said that we were at "full lake".
So, although it is an indicator, I am not sure how that marker corresponds with what the people at the state level are thinking.
I also suggested that they increase the outflow at night and slow it down during the day to decrease the current in the Weirs Channel while people are navigating through there. It is my feeling that it is a safety issue. He said that was not possible since they don't work nights so it has to remain where the leave it when they go home.
Last year the substantial current in the channel did not slow until mid July. This year it has not been nearly as bad.
