For a long time I have wished that the lake's level could stabilize, or at least drop less than it does each year... reasoning that this would allow me to keep my boats in longer and enjoy the lake more. But something occured to me that might change my mind, and I'd like to get everyone's thoughts on it.

If the lake level didn't drop each year, wouldn't it become more polluted over time? With so many septic systems, so much chemical run off from yards & agriculture, so many 4 cycle engines depositing various things into the water... does the annual "flushing" keep the total pollutant level down?

Any knowledgable (or just arm-chair) hydrologists or environmental engineers out there with an opinion to share on this one?
