Subject: Log Boom installation at Cochiti Lake

Dear Boaters,

I am writing to inform you of a planned Corps of Engineers action that may affect boating in the upper part of Cochiti Lake.  As you may know, there have been issues with debris from the Las Conchas fire impacting recreation on the lake recently. The Corps is also concerned about debris clogging and damaging the dam outlet works. To address this, we are planning to install a floating log boom across the upper part of the lake. This will help keep the rest of the lake clear, but will obstruct passage into Cochiti Lake from upstream.

Please read the attached letter for details. I would appreciate hearing from you if you have any concerns. Also, please let me know of any others who should receive this.

I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you,

Dana M. Price
