drawing downs - Why?
Message:
Why do the draw down lake in the fall? I can understand trying to maintain a consistent water lever but why do they draw down lakes below normal in the fall? Is it a proactive way to prevent flooding when winter hits because of ice?

It's done mostly so folks can work on their docks and bulkheads.

And also to let the lake fill with natural run off and snow melt all winter.
