Clinton Lake water release aims to lower record level
The Corps of Engineers began releasing water at Clinton Lake as summer set a record high. The lake stood at 895 feet above sea level on Tuesday, about 19.5 feet above normal, with the old record 892.48 feet from May 1995. The plan is to discharge 3,000 cubic feet per second, dropping the level roughly a half foot daily, though storms disrupted earlier efforts.
