Picture is clearer . at Rollins Things~-are looking a little brighter--or perhaps that should be clearer -at Rollins Lake Recreation Area. Recreation use fell 50 per cent in recent weeks after the water level dropped 17 feet, leaving muddy beaches and water. . However, the water level at Rollins has stabilzed now, reports Karen Luglan, one of the resort's operators, "Beaches are now dry, andthe water is once again clear," she said. "We are hopeful that the lake will slowly begin to rise." Mrs. Luglan expressed the hope that Pacific Gas and Electric Co. could -maintain a good water level in the lake during summer months, noting that a low level was experienced during the 1968 season too. However, the major problem this summer was an outage in a transformer, requiring extra lowering of the lake so temporary units could be ‘installed. Mrs. Luglan noted that "such unfortunate occurrences" as the lowered lake level" are not only harmful to recreational enterprises at the lake itself, but to all businesses in Nevada and Placer counties which rely upon the tourist trade." eRe SES] Pee EF ce ier eeezp enreere WHAT THEY took you to your final resting place in? * P , . > Pes WR POR BN Sivwr*?a0 «8 ace n eee : : re Sie alanis Cie cae a ae ew
