Start with the channel level book and the downstream moisture readings. It is the source used to decide how the seasonal cut is timed when two branches reach their wet period at different times; it is not the decision itself. The rule only works if the source describes conditions at the east grove feeder channel.
Known: the current file counts 93 readings taken at the same root markers, compared with 98 in the prior window. Anew seasonal file opens with a named site and a dated measure. The entries have dates and a named clerk.
Disputed: The upper steward favors a shared calendar date. The east circle wants the cut tied to its own readings. One side emphasizes the posted total; the other points to the east branch receives meltwater two days later than the upper branch.
Why it matters: the decision determines which residents can rely on the service and which staff must carry out the change. The file does not settle that by itself.
Next: The Year second, seedfall window 1 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The water circle will compare two dates against the same root markers.
