As we ponder the devastation in the gulf from the oil spill, it has me wondering if there is a potential environmental danger posed to our Lake we should be thinking about...anything?

some unnamed state official has mentioned releasing water from upstream reservoirs into Mobile Bay as a means of flushing the bay to push the oil back out to sea. While this may appear to have some merit the official may not have taken into consideration the effect of natural tide flow. At times the bay will have a tide variance of up to three feet (without wind) which is much more water flow than could be supplied by the rivers and lakes. The flushing action of the rains over the past 24 hours will tell the tale. Martin has some flood gates open now as do the Coosa dams. The Tombigbee will be flooding also so Mobile should get plenty of water. Let's all hope this problem is controlled soon.

Why of course there was Bob, but the legislature has already solved the problem. Don't you remember all the discussion about those horrible, nasty, air and noise polluting, CO2 emiting, foul smelling, horrendiously ugly, BIG FAST BOATS!
Not to mention the Dadeville Sewer Plant where they intentially sent raw sewage into the lake daily becasue they are jealous of those rich folks that live on the lake.

We had a serious detrimental environmental impact last year - Aquapolluter. All the additional boat traffic, along with a sharp rise in salinity and temperature could not have been good for the environment. Ban 'em.

I'm actually expecting an environmental improvement, known in the lake business as a "pick up". With gas back around $5 a gallon on the lake, traffic will be down giving me the more private access and usage I deserve.
Oh - and hopefully the parents in my slough will be cutting off their kids' PWC gas fund earlier as well, so the only one you'll hear coming and going will be mine. At idle.

With their increasing population, I'm concerned about goose poop...in the lake and on my pier. Maybe a lead poisoning plague will set in.

the EPA has discovered that H2O is a highly dangerous compound. If you ingest too much of it you will stop breathing all together. Of course if that happens it will positively affect the Ecosphere by reducing the emission of CO2 which is a dangerous gas and is now regulated by the EPA.
