I will not disagree that they should be able to leave the lake at a higher level longer. However they seem to run the dam and lake level off of Historical data which indicates the lake is right where it needs to be. Now the real question becomes what would have to be done to convince DES that they need to deviate from the normal historical operation of the dam and lake level.

If People really want to see this change they should start asking DES questions.
