A review of reservoir marks, pump log copies and the public archive index finds a gap between the total in the public summary and the conditions recorded at the archive niche at Moss Reservoir. The difference does not prove that anyone misstated the file. It shows what the public count leaves out: the earliest level marks use a handspan scale that changed between crews.
The reservoir marks, pump log copies and the public archive index lists 40 historic marks with a date and reading location; the previous window lists 38. Niri Flint checked both against paired readings from the source and the last occupied branch. The source was checked against a second copy held by Niri Flint. No dated correction to either copy was present when the comparison closed.
The archive wants one present-day scale. Pump crews ask that old marks keep their original unit alongside a conversion. The office has not supplied a separate measure that would settle the disagreement, so the two explanations remain competing accounts.
This report supports a narrower finding: the count is repeatable, but it is not enough to decide how residents compare old and current water levels when the scale changed.
Residents and route crews submit corrections before the public table closes. The Year fifth, vent change window 2 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The archive will add a conversion note without removing the original mark.
