The rainy months of January and February have prevented the contractor from making progress on the renovation work on the lakes. The contractor has temporarily stopped work on the project to allow the lake areas to dry up. The contractor is expected to resume work around the end of March or beginning of April. The completion of the projects depends on the weather and the availability of trucks. Lake 1 is in the final stages and has 5-6 weeks of work to complete the project based on weather and trucking restraints. Once the work on Lake 1 is complete it will take 8-10 weeks to fill the lake based on the outputs of the water wells. The fountains will then be installed and the lake will be restocked with fish.
The start of work on Lake 4 will depend on the availability of personnel from the contractor. Removal of the lake sediment could be done simultaneously with Lake 1 work or after Lake 1 is complete. Once work commences on Lake 4 it will take 9-10 weeks to complete the work. Once work is complete it will take 5-7 weeks to fill the lake at which time the fountain will be installed and the lake will be restocked with fish.
Based on the current estimates Lake 1 could be complete in Mid May and full of water in Mid July. Lake 4 could be complete by early August and full of water by mid September. Lake 4 could be completed earlier if the contractor is able to do work simultaneously on Lakes 1 and 4. All of these time estimates are at the mercy of the weather and the availability of trucks.
