You are correct to say the lake has fluctuated since it was built, however, to infer it fluctuates in the same manner is completely wrong. The whole arguement revolves around APC not following the rule curve.
Since the addition of Gorgas unit #10 in 1972-73 the lake has been used for a cooling tower not a peaking hydro facility. Under the SLISA proposal more hydro power is generated and Navigation requirements are met as well as flood control and drinking water. If APC had followed its own rule curve the lake would be at the 504.5 on Labor Day, but typically it is well below the 500. The fault lies with APC not following its own rule curve.
This is the time to try to resolve this matter. ifIf APC renews its license it will be at least for 30 years and maybe as long as 50 years.

Binza46 I have always agreed that everyone has the right to their opinion, but our opinions are better founded on facts not hearsay. I encourage you to do your own research about the facts.
