Here you answer your own question. Drawing down the lake IS one of its intended purposes, FLOOD CONTROL. The only argument now is if 10 feet is still the appropriate amount. I would argue no, but that is just a laymens perpesctive. With sattelites and the resulting wether forecasting now, less is surely adequate. How much less? I don't know, but I can assure you that APCO does, and will seek that level at the next relicensing, no matter what we think or do. The biggest issue now seems to be the 'plug date'. APCO presented evidence at the variance meeting of last year that the shifting weather patterns are bringing the rains ealier, therefore the earlier plug date was granted, and we all saw the results. 490, 480, 470, there is STILL plenty of water for us to play on.
