  2. Charles Mill Lake Black Fork of the Mohican River • Original Volume* = 11,369 acre-ft • Current Volume* = 8,129 acre-ft • Sediment Volume* = 3,139 acre-ft • 28% Loss of Volume • Used by MWCD for Public Recreation • Need for Dredging U.S. 30 Rt 430 Rt 603 Charles Mill Lake *Note: Data is as of 1993

  13. Sediment Depth: 1934-1998

  14. Collecting Samples • Used GPS and USGS Maps for back-up • 60 sediment sample sites were selected 1. Retrieving the Samples (4 days) 2. Bagging the Samples for Transport

  15. Recording Attributes - Recorded UTM coordinates, sample #, general grain size and color with Munsell Chart - Ground sediment and sieve analysis (8 weeks)
