Mike. ThePower CO.(APC) controls water levels for hydroelectric power production and flood protection at 7 dams along the Coosa river. The Corp. of Engineers also supervises water levels. Unfortunately, yor points are true but not of concern to APC. LMLPA has negotiated with APC for 10 years, and they agreed to include 2 extra feet in the winter in their license renewal request this year. However, the Corp.required a restudy of water levels since the last review, which was many years ago. If they do that it will take years to complete. So, I expect the new license will be issued with no change in current winter and summer water levels. I suggest you join the LMLPA and you will get quarterly newsletters and notification of meeting dates. I am no longer President, and new officers will be elected soon. The secretary is Ann Moore at Amoore194@aol.com. Web site is lmlpa.org.
Thanks for your interest.
