West lake (Seas, Imagination, Land) was empty because they were re-doing the wall on the bridge into the Land, pouring new concrete wall stuff. Now, even though that's finished, they're also working on the Imagination fountain (It was looking pretty terrible).

They're also painting the walls that make up the borders of the pools (I sometimes see them out there on the way to work).

I thought that it was because the Living Seas is being redone and once the seas is up again they will refill the lake.i could be wrong on this though

Yeah its just stagnant water, so they have to drain it and clean it out from time to time and repaint the side walls. They do put big white tablets into the water though to keep it clear. Next time you see it filled look in the bottom and you'll see a bunch of white tablets that look like giant asprin.

I noticed them empty last Saturday when we were there... (facing The Land) the one on the right had what appeared to be path rows through the rocks and most of the coins appeared to have been removed. The rocks that were left were very coppered-green. The "lake" on the left, it looked as if they hadn't started yet... there appeared more coins than rocks and everything was dark coppered-green. Gross.

I heard a rumor that they were going to place containers on the walkways around the lakes with signs that say "For your convenience, please place your wishing coins in these containers". So they dont have to clean the money out anymore. Seems a bit unmagical to me, but would be more efficient.

When we were there in December the rocks in the lake by The Land and Living Seas were a mess. It was drained and the rocks were just sitting anywhere. This last trip in June the lake was drained as well but the rocks were neatly placed within.
