Post Rain Event (May 8, 2015) 75% blockage after rain event. Upstream channel diverted during rain event and resulted in erosion west of culvert.
Post Rain Event (May 28, 2015) 100% blockage after additional rain events.
Sediment carried to Mississippi River via Pickerel Lake Sediment from North Knob area will continue to be deposited into Pickerel Lake and Mississippi River until North Knob stabilized. Sediment caught by floating silt curtain
