But yes, they have announced that they are complete with the repairs and will no longer be holding it lower than normal pool. Last edited by David Burton; 04/26/22 12:59 AM.

The upper basin(s) for the lake apparently aren't as big as most lakes. It may take a year or better for it to get back to pool stage. 2012 ZX200 Skeeter 2012 Yamaha 200 SHO Isaiah 40:31 "but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.

It pumps water to, but that's not how they drew it down. Even IF the pumps could go in reverse, which they likely don't, it wouldn't fill it up anytime soon!
