Chris, you are absolutely correct in your assumptions that the corp sets guidelines on APCO for maintaining water levels within parameters given to them by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for operation of the dam. However, APCO also has responsibility for the operation of other impoundments on the Coosa and they have to be kept within guidelines as well. You have to remember Logan Martin is a control reservoir for water levels on downstream lakes and I think (that's my assumption) we are the sacrificial lamb to maintain them.  Chris, if you are a member of LMLPA or would like to be a member we are going to have a guest speaker from APCO who might be able to answer those questions and definitely a lot more qualified than me.
