Subject:   Question for Mythbuster

If the lake had a winter pool level last winter of 485', we would have started with a level of 490' and we could have released another 2' to help folks downstream. 479' + 7' rise = 486' highest water level 2007'. Or if winter level were 485' + 7'rise = 492' - 2' released = 490'. Then the drought release from 486' - 3' = 483' Today's level.

If we had started at 490' with the same releases, the same drought, etc., the lake level would be 487' and we would have provided 2' of additional water downstream. 487' is a reasonable lake level and is in line with the lake levels in Alabama.

Can you imagine why APCo would not support winter levels of 485'?
