Martyn,

You let the cat out of the bag... Now we all know why the snivelers continue to rant about water levels.... It's called a BANK ACCOUNT and the incessant need to make it grow.

"Since the demands are being driven primarily by the new development on the lake"

What is bothersome to me and my family, is that we do NOT want a Birmingham on water. Wilderness is one of the biggest drivers for people wanting to be on the lake. Development should be managed by the natural resources that us lake lovers came here for NOT by some greedy tycoon padding his wallet. The fact that the lake fluctuates keeps the lake in check and prevents every Tom, Dick and Harry with money form swallowing up the limited shoreline and turning the lake into an investment check for one's retirement.

SLISA obviously has hidden agendas. If it were all about a cooling tower and lake levels then why all the whining and cheap shots at APCO and not actually trying to solve the problem with thier $25 / head membership fee?
