Some one may have already posted this. If so, just bear with me.

At the Martin Dam Relicensing Workshop on 1/30/07, the following info was distributed:

"In the 1920's when land was being purchased for construction of the Project, a locally established reference point known as Martin Datum was utilized for determining elevations. Today, most figures, drawings and general references are shown in mean sea level, or msl, which FERC also uses as it's standard. Martin Datum is the equivalent of 1 foot below msl. Throughout this document and during the relicensing process and thereafter, all elevations will be presented in msl rather than Martin Datum. For example, the Lake Martin normal summer pool will be shown as El. 491 msl (which is equivalent to El. 490 Martin Datum)."

My take on this is somebody was just off the mark by 1 foot back in the 20's and they are finally going to correct it!
