I dived there a few weeks ago. Found one seahorse, a couple batfish, lots of nudis (flabellinas), a rather large spotted eel, a few arrow crabs, got buzzed by a spotted eagle ray. But noticably missing were the juvenile fishes, the cushion stars, urchins, and the white/clear blennies/gobies small bottom dwellers. Also missing on the west side, were the hydroids and any vegetation to the south of the bridge. I mentioned this when I exited, and was told, "well, duh.. they're dumping Lake O water, the governor is.. blah, blah, blah.." hmm..
Thanks for the heads up. I believe the University did not intend for this to happen this way, but with such scant oversight, you can almost always expect employees and students to take the easy road. It would have been far better if they had responded with contrition rather than abject denial, but the current political climate seems to breed that kind of response.
