Dear Twin Lakes Neighbor
(Updated 4-16-2024)
Last fall the TLIA board decided to form a new committee to further improve water quality in Twin Lakes. The purpose of the committee is to evaluate, select and recommend to our association board projects that will provide the most benefits to improve water quality. Mike Knowles and Doug Jayne will co-chair the committee with Debbie Andrews and Dawn Dionne also serving as members. Additional members will be added over time.
Since none of us are water quality scientists, we will reach out to environmental agencies, water quality scientists in academia and environmental consulting firms to assist us. We recently met with representatives from Idaho Department of Environmental Quality to explain our mission and ask for any assistance they can provide us with. They are amenable to providing guidance on helping us select which types of projects would be most useful and suggestions for making most effective grant applications to help fund projects. We hope to file a federal 319 grant application for a newly selected water quality project this summer. Grant applications are due July 15th.
The committee is also investigating the possibility of recommending removal of a couple hundred cubic yards of additional sand from the channel narrows that couldn’t be reached during the channel dredging project due to the unknown location of the water districts’ buried water line. Removal of this sand may be possible if the district is able to locate the line.
If you have questions about the project, please contact Mike Knowles at (509) 863-4359, Doug Jayne (509) 710-7188, or Debbie Andrews at (724) 553-8779.
