[#0000FF]The understanding I have...after a couple of conversations with DWR folks...is that all of the "vilegers" (larvae) were found in one small area near the dam. None elsewhere in the lake. The theory is that a wakeboard boat that had been on Powell dumped its ballast tank in that one spot. It was not determined whether the little critters were already dead when taken in the sampling. We hope they were.
Thankfully, no other evidence...larvae or adults...has been found since. So optimistically Deer Creek will resume "clean" status this fall.
