LEVELLOGGERS

  • Group 5 dataloggers have been uploaded and are posted on the web.
  • Group 6 dataloggers will be installed next week. Data is scheduled to be uploaded in May.
  • As per agreement with GEI Consultants Inc., loggers (there are a total of 4) installed in and around Cazenove St. continue to be uploaded once a week and sent to GEI Consultants Inc. The purpose is to observe the water levels in the area where the recharge systems have been installed.
