Echo Park Lake Odor Monitoring Group meets for the first time

Volunteers of the Odor Monitoring Committee met with the Echo Park Lake Rehabilitation Team (CD13, Public Affairs Office, Department of Public Works, etc.) last Wednesday, September 7 to discuss the draining of the lake what to expect in the near future.

According to the meeting minutes, the rehab project is on schedule, with the lake draining to be complete in a couple of weeks. Here’s where we are at the project:

  • 89 Red Haired Slider turtles were removed and are on their way to the California Tortoise Club and their Tortoise and Turtle Adoption Program
  • 300 fish have been captured and relocated
  • Paving on the pathways have been removed
  • New storm pipes will be installed at the east side of the lake in a couple of weeks

The first Odor Monitoring Committee reported a slight smell of fish, but no dead fish were found so far and they will continue to monitor.

As mentioned in our last Echo Park Lake article, construction workers will be keeping track of what they find in Echo Park Lake as they drain it – from shopping carts to other treasures, we’re hoping there are some interesting items and not any dead bodies or anything in the muck.

If you catch unusual odors from the lake draining, please go to www.EchoParkLake.org/odorreportingprocedure.pdf, call (213) 978-0317, or email bpw.pao@lacity.

The next Odor Monitoring Committee meeting is scheduled for October.

    Can I simply say what a relief to discover a person that actually knows what they are discussing
    on the internet. You actually understand how to bring a problem to
    light and make it important. A lot more people should read this and understand this side of the story.
    I can’t believe you are not more popular
    because you certainly possess the gift.

  23. g says:

    I think what you posted made a ton of sense. But, consider this, what if you
    were to create a awesome title? I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website, but
    suppose you added a headline that makes people desire more?
    I mean Echo Park Lake Odor Monitoring Group meets for the first time | Echo Park
    Now is kinda vanilla. You ought to peek at Yahoo’s home page and watch
    how they create article titles to get viewers to open the links.
    You might add a related video or a pic or two to get readers excited
    about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it would make your posts
    a little bit more interesting.

  24. g says:

    You could definitely see your expertise in the article you write.

    The world hopes for more passionate writers such as you
    who aren’t afraid to mention how they believe.
    Always follow your heart.

  25. Daniel Dantas says:

    I’m extremely impressed along with your writing talents and also with the layout to your weblog.

    Is that this a paid subject or did you modify it yourself?
    Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it’s rare to see
    a great weblog like this one today..

  26. Adalberto says:

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter
    to be really something that I think I would never understand.

    It seems too complex and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll try
    to get the hang of it!

  27. tinyurl.com says:

  29. tinyurl.com says:

    Howdy! I realize this is kind of off-topic however I had to ask.
    Does managing a well-established blog like yours take a lot of work?
    I’m brand new to operating a blog but I do write
    in my journal everyday. I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience
    and views online. Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas
    or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!
