Status of Lake Perez?

[jifigz]

Does anyone know the status of Lake Perez at Penn State's Stone Valley area? I remember a few years back after moving back to my hometown area I drove there to fish for crappies, pickerel, and bass only to find an empty hole in the earth. I am pretty sure that it was scheduled to be refilled by now or is supposed to be refilled soon. If anyone knows the status of the lake please let me know. I did notice that it is to receive stockings of fathead minnows and largemouth bass this year so hopefully everything is on schedule.

I had good bluegill fishing there in the past. But I imagine it will take a few years for that to recover.
