Winter is coming to a close which means work will resume soon on replacing the Williams Lake Dam.

Williams Lake Conservation Company (WLCC) Director Dr. Melanie Dobson has graphed the Williams Lake water levels for this year to August and over the past few summers for comparison. As well, she has summarized her water quality test results.
