According to the original report:
“The Project is best adapted to a comprehensive plan for improving and developing the Sipsey Fork of the Black Warrior River and the Black Warrior River for the use and benefit of interstate or foreign commerce, for the improvement and utilization of water-power development, and for other beneficial public uses, including recreational purposes.”

You will notice that the first and foremost use is:
" use and benefit of interstate or foreign commerce"
This would include keeping downstream rivers navagable!

Secondly:
" improvement and utilization of water-power development"
Of course, this means creating power, which is both accomplished by Smith Lake Dam and the Gorgas Plant!

FINALLY:
"other beneficial public uses, including recreational purposes.”
This of course, would include drinking and irrigation, as well as recreational use!

NOW, again, I ask: Haven't you guys been using this lake for recreational purposes?
You noticed that it didn't include anything about the Windfall from selling lake front lots at HUGE profits? It also doesn't mention anything about raising the levels so that a few individuals could cash-in on cheap land and make a small fortune...
