Once again, opinions must yield to facts. The below quote was taken from the Original License Issued in 1957.

“The Project is best adapted to a comprehensive plan for improving and developing the Sipsey Fork of the Black Warrior River and the Black Warrior River for the use and benefit of interstate or foreign commerce, for the improvement and utilization of water-power development, and for other beneficial public uses, including recreational purposes.”

Much of the property taken by APC was taken by imminent domain.
"The power to take private property for public use by a state, municipality, or private person or corporation authorized to exercise functions of public character, following the payment of just compensation to the owner of that property."
This means that APC could not just take the property to provide profits to shareholders, it must provide a public use (recreation etc.).
We do not need to forget that even though APC bought the property under the lake, APC did not rebuild any roads or bridges. The taxpayers rebuilt all roads and bridges to go over and around the lake. So to say the public does not have any rights or an investment in the lake is completely wrong.
