From the 1940-1945 MDWSC Annual Report (p. 41): "The pond back of the Ware intake dam was drained from July 17 to November 3, 1940, and thoroughly cleaned of debris which consisted mostly of matted root masses which had been brought down during the unprecedented flood of September, 1938, and which had badly clogged the intake racks during the subsequent periods of diversion."
