STATUS: Afield visit checks the posted rule against the route residents actually use. The current arrangement remains in place at the East Quay flood stair.
RECORD: the quay gauge book and the upstream water board. The count is 88 readings paired with an upstream time stamp; the prior window recorded 89.
DISPUTE: Quay residents say the lower mark rises first. The water board says its upstream station gives the more stable warning.
OUTCOME: The hearing is still open and no permanent rule has changed.
NEXT: The Year first, river rise window 2 file remains open for its scheduled decision. Asecond gauge will be read at the same hour on both sides of the quay.
