Corps: Options constantly being looked at for Lanier

GAINESVILLE - The man who oversees the operation of Lake Lanier for the U.S. Army Corps says all options are on the table to keep Lanier healthy.

Jonathan Davis, appearing on The Martha Zoller Show on WDUN-AM 550 (like AccessNorthGa.com, a division of Jacobs Media Corp.), responded to a question as to whether water in Lanier could be held back to the degree planned for Lake Allaatoona.

"They have the same needs in that basin as here," he said. "So I am sure that some of the same questions and solutions would probably work for both basins."

He added Lanier could see another foot drop by the end of the month.

As of Wednesday morning, the level was 1051.54.
