Neither of you are wrong........ APCO has the powert to control the water level and they choose to let it get lower and lower..... It is well below the average for this year and the weather will allow us another month or more to enjoy the lake but APCO chooses to cut our year short and lower the water to levels too low for some to use the lake.

An article was written a few years back about the dam and APCO said that the power from the dam was not needed in everyday use and they get sufficient power from other sources so the need to generate power is a poor excuse. You would think they would want to keep the levels up so more power would be used around the lake.
