SLISASUCKS

The first reason is that I am not violating any rules that FERC governs.
As for the cooling towers themselves they should be paid for by the company that has robbed the three counties
of their resources for the last 30 years.
SLISASUCKS I will give you a chance to buy all my seasonal property for current value. As a matter of fact it is all for sale now so anyone who wants to buy it now before it becomes more valueable just let me know. I do hope you are at least smart enough to realize that much of the seasonal property that is seasonal at the 496 will also be seasonable at the 502.

This is not about seasonal property this is about using a resource in this case water to its maximum advantage. It benefits the environment, the wildlife and the people who can use and enjoy it. It benefits both upstream and downstream users by proportioning the releases so it is not feast or famine. The only user that does not benefit is Gorgas.

Gorgas steam plant was not in the original license or in the relicense as a project purpose. Public recreation is in the original license and the relicense as a project purpose. FERC has already told APC that it was going to have to at least follow their current rule curve, and as stated earlier APC can not follow its current rule curve without cooling towers or reducing Gorgas generation. The following is take from APC's own record to FERC.
"Limiting the amount of water that may be released from storage at Smith during the important summer
and fall seasons will prevent Gorgas Steam Plant from being able to operate and meet its
NPDES temperature requirements."

I think that was a fair question. I can give you references from the EPA, PSC , Energy Department , FERC and the Birmingham News to back up my facts if you would like. Where do you refernces come from? I just thought since you said you would like to deal with that kind of company you might have some insight to how they actually operate.
