Southern California Edison Company proposes to drain Shaver Lake to natural stream flow by way of the low level outlet valve on the dam and tunnel five through Powerhouse No. 2A.

Once lake levels have stabilized, a qualified biologist will survey the area four times as week to collect and record any fish mortality. Any fish mortality that occurred during the dewatering of the lake will be replaced.
