Del. Kathy Bryon (Bed Co.) has answered my email and I have proposed some dates for a meeting but nothing has been set up at this time. The meetings went well lasting 1-1/2 to 2 hours. Reviewed were the lake in general, pump storage operations and how LVL works with SM, showed pictures of the debris issues, talked about the Pigg River, went over high points of the FERC license and discussed our history in trying to work with APCo/AEP over the last three years. Fariss-Wasn’t very familiar with the lake or the operation. He asked many questions but recognized he doesn’t have many constituents on the lake. He indicated that he might pursue working with the VA Secretary of Natural Resources on the issue. Adams-Met on 11/24. Knew some about the lake, but not much. Also knew little about how Smith and LVL work together. He indicated he may look at the state budget to see if there is any help in that area. Ruff-Met on 12/2. Lives on Buggs Island lake and was the most familiar with LVL, FERC and how a pumped storage facility works. Understands the issue and indicated that our next move was with the U.S. Senators from VA. Dave R. requested that they contact AEP’s Chief Government Affairs person (R, Jefferson) and let him know that we had met and make Mr. Jefferson aware to keep them informed on the Pigg River solution, the Myer’s Creek Removal site, and more on APCo’s lack of interest in increasing resources, including equipment and crews, on the lake until the Pigg River is solved.

Water Quality: Tony reported that the Water Quality Committee responded to the most recent monthly water quality reports from AEP to the water quality technical review committee. It was pointed out that the dissolved oxygen (DO) content of tailwater from SML was unacceptably low and that action needs to be taken to improve water quality to meet the required standards for operation. Recent reports showed that the DO content fell below the operational standards 100% of the time in August and September. Over recent years operational changes have been used to improve the DO content of the discharged waters, but this has failed to rectify the situation. Action is needed. Tony stated that Liz Parcells emailed a request to submit a work plan and budget for the Water Quality Monitoring Committee for two (2) years versus the usual one (1) year. There are concerns that more funds may be needed in the years to come. Motion: Tony made a motion to submit a two (2) year budget with the second year budget (2022- 2023) being 10% more than the one (1) year budget (2021-2022).
