Lake level lowered to winter pool for repairs

Over the next four weeks, the Corps of Engineers will continue lowering water levels at Lake Lanier to 1069.0 feet above sea level. The drawdown began in early October to take levels to the winter elevation of 1070.0 MSL.

The additional one-foot release will accommodate the Corps to make headgate repairs. The work is expected to start at the end of November and continue for approximately three weeks.
