Agree with you for the most LTL except for lawsuits. Two lawsuits come to mind against APCo for flooding on the Tallapoosa. One for flooding below Martin has been through the litigation gauntlet and either has been settled at the BAMA Supreme Court or about to be. Another, related to the May 8, 2003 flooding between Harris and Martin that is still in the works.

As Osms indicated above, HOBO is challenging the veracity of the recent APCo flood study that used past March and May flood event data. We've had some nasty floods in winter before, the 1961 February flood comes to mind; but there is more winter storage capacity now with the addition of Harris reservoir, and much mo better forecasting technology to manage the dam(n) hydraulic control capabilities Harris and Martin provide on the Poosa.

Again, I think the HOBOs are going to make a higher winter pool happen--hopefully $ooner rather than later.
