Under normal rain conditions, when downstream waters get replenished by the rain, instead of relying on Lanier, they don't even release water, so no production. As to Harry's comment that first and foremost it's a reservior, that is correct. It's where water is collected and stored. And yes, flood control is part of the reason for the lake, but not necessarily the top reason. As a side note, Lanier wouldn't be in such bad shape if, during this continuing drought, a big mistake had not been made. The Army Corp installed a new lake gauge in winter of '05 and it wasn't calibrated correctly, and they dumped 20 some billion gallons into the Hooch. While that might be true, what do you know about concrete? More than you, and that is true about a lot more than concrete. |
