Document Description
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California proposes to remove approximately 0.78 acre of vegetation in two locations immediately to the west of the Lake Mathews West Dam. Removal of the vegetation will prevent water from ponding in the area of monitoring equipment and will permit accurate reading of the amount of seepage from the West Dam. Vegetation would be removed by hand on an annual basis indefinitely.
