Phase I of this project has been completed at a cost of $80,000. Phase I concluded that recovery alternatives would
potentially help to achieve rasing the lake level by nearly 0.5 ft during normal hydrologic conditions and therefore would
increase the frequency that the lake meets the adopted MFL. The recommended recovery alternatives focus on the
installation of new control structures along the Jackson-Josephine canal, between Structure 2 and Structure 3. The
second phase of this project will focus on developing the hydrologic model needed to further refine the project design
and to further refine the predicted duration that the MFL may be achieved. The second phase of this project was
temporarily put on hold for the last seven months, pending a review of the MFL methodology for Lake Jackson and Little
Lake Jackson. In addition to the revised MFL methodology, the MFL compliance criteria was also re-evaluated using the
newer methodology that is adjusted for rainfall deficits. An inter-department staff meeting was held on January 17th,
2008, April 1, 2008, April 8, 2008, and April 17, 2008 to review the revised compliance criteria. Due to the delays an
amendment was processed to provide more time to complete the project. The amendment also included a change to the
