The only reason I replied this time is in the past few weeks I've seen Gorgas mentioned as the reason water is being released now, and that smith lake has never flooded. Technically we had a minor flood just recently when the water went up to 514 or so. And there is no way water is being released for gorgas at the current time, the water temps everywhere are plenty cool right now for any cooling operation. APC wants a full pool in June, so they can release water and generate power and cool gorgas, so no release of water right now is in their interest.

You have to also admit that we have had a drought the past few years, water does have to be released in the summer for some things, and that the water will go up and down even without gorgas.
