You really make this to easy. As stated the rain you are speaking of was in 2004. The Lake was at the 502' when this event occurred. I would think you would no that the lake volume at e 518-522 is far greater than the 502-506. Under the slisa proposal and real modeling the results indicate that at no time in history would the lake have reached the 522 if the low water mark was the 502'.

Also the reason SLISA chose the 502' was based on APC's own calculations. Those calculations indicate that it would take a flood of greater than a thousand years to exceed the 522'. For the low mark of 496' to be needed for flood control would take a flood that only Noah and his family could tell you about.

Also as a note January, March, and April are the wettest months of the year in this watershed. Historically Smith Lake rises above the 502 on January 9th. That in itself kind of shoots down that the 502 would cause more flooding.
