Preserving Lake Dunlap for . . .
An email update from GBRA (posted 1/31/12)
Crews at Lake Dunlap will move to Lake Gonzales to make emergency repairs to a spillgate that did not function properly following the flood event from heavy rains recently (9 inches of rain in Caldwell County). Upon completion of that repair, the crews will finish up repair work at Lake Dunlap. In the meantime, refilling at Lake Dunlap will begin Wednesday, Feb. 1, 2012, to a level that will be a foot and a half below its normal pond level.
Based on the current inflow, the refilling process to the prescribed level should take about a week and be reached by Wednesday, Feb. 8, 2012. Hydroelectric crews have indicated Lake Dunlap will remain at a foot and a half below its normal pond level until work is completed on the dam. Crews estimated completion of repairs should occur around March 30, 2012.
GBRA staff will continue to communicate with the contractor about these matters and will relay significant lake level or schedule changes to Lake Dunlap constituents accordingly.

An email update from GBRA about the new no wake zone (posted 1/27/12)
The Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) has adopted a stump removal guidelines/process that will apply to all of GBRA’s Hydroelectric lakes, which are Lake Dunlap located in Comal and Guadalupe Counties; Lakes McQueeney, Placid and Nolte (Meadow) located in Guadalupe County; and Lake Gonzales (H-4) and Lake Wood (H-5) located in Gonzales County, Texas
An Action By The General Manager has designated a no-wake speed area on a portion of Lake Dunlap from the north end of Camp Porter Road to Lake Dunlap Dam. This area will be marked with buoys to protect public safety. The existing restricted area marked by buoys and located within 200 feet of the Lake Dunlap Dam remains in force and no public use or watercraft is allowed within this area.
Both documents plus other current restrictions and lake information can be found on the GBRA website by following this link to the Lake Management page.
