Can't draw them all down equally because the lake depths differ. The Coosa lakes are more shallow and would empty. One of the big reasons are the intakes for power generation are much deeper in Lake Martin and other storage lakes than in the run-of-the-river lakes. When a lake like Mitchell gets to a certain point the intakes are exposed and APCO could not generate (and possible not pass water downstream). With your proposal cities downstream may lose their city water because water intakes in the river would be exposed--then what do you do. There is one thing that will help--I've already stated it. Higher winter level.
