More on SNW

2 issues; the River rises faster than it recedes. At 777.5 the River is SNW 30% more frequently than at 778.5 (I will post a chart we gave to PS&J Committee members)

Second issue is the arbitrary number 777.5 - their is no science, photos etc that suggest any property is inundated at that level. State statutes have very defined reasons why SNW is ordered and at 777.5 none of those reasons come into play. 

So I am hoping RKLD taxpayers offer their testimony and even suggest a compromise between 777.5 and what was supposed to be an example of a legit, measurable SNW trigger - ACTION STAGE as defined by not RKLD but rather USGS (779.0). 

Action stage is not flood stage. Action stage means take action - such as pulling piers, boat lifts, ordering SNW, etc.
