PS The viz at P1 was not good enough to open the system back up yet last Friday.

Is it improving, or at a standstill?

I went to work today, there is no road work being done yet, I'm not sure what the hold up is, it is the construction specialist not park management who is running this project. I used the leaf blower to clean steps up today and at Orange Grove I could see down about 10 or 12 feet, the water is free of particles and looks better than P1, but it is green. At P1 you can see to the bottom, there is only 3 steps left under water but it is a very dark green color, it is not clear enough to be opened for diving yet. I assume John O is checking the conditions out on a regular basis, but we cannot reopen until the road is completed. I went into bonnet today, no big reptiles laying about, no mosquitos either.
I did save a baby duck at Orange Grove today a hawk was trying to take one of the two baby ducks so I chased the hawk away, since there was only two baby ducks I figure the hawks has already had a few duck meals, there is usually at least 6 or 7 baby ducks following the big ones around.
Safe diving,
Janet

The road work has not begun yet, however the equipment, a 10 ton truck, a small dozer and bulldozer, have been delivered. The fill is coming on Monday and the work will begin on Tuesday, after a day or two he'll be able to tell us how long it will take to complete the project. John Orlowski conducted a line committee test dive with tape measure and all last week and we have 30' to 60' of viz inside the system, the green water in the basins is from an algea bloom. So as soon as the road is completed we will be able to reopen for diving. We are truly sorry for the delays and what this is doing to your vacation plans, if I were planning a vacation I would not plan on diving PSSP before the 17th at the earliest and for safety maybe not until the next weekend. Sorry the news isn't better.

The system is clearing, that's great news. Hopefully 2-3 weeks it'll be done, which for me, I was unavailable until then anyways!

Thank You for your kind responses, I was afraid someone was going to come to beat us up.
Just kidding!
