1. Oops! This is good news for the endangered fish downstream.

:) Atlantans should stop watering lawns completely. We Georgians can no longer afford bright green lawns. I have an established Bermuda grass lawn that is never irrigated except by rain. It gorws just fine and stays green.

2. Yea, I live -5 mins. from Lanier, and about 5 mins from the Dam.

The people who live here have been complaining for MONTHS and nobody would listen. When it darn near quit raining completely, the lake level dropped like a cracked fish tank, and so many people contacted the ACE, they finally checked, and, low and behold, the guage was wrong!!!

The next day, I heard that Ga. is sueing the ACE for mismanagement. I guess we'll have to wait and see just how far THAT goes!
