Hi all, I searched for any past threads on the topic " PLAN 2014" but didn't come up with any hits. I have pasted the link below for all to read
http://www.ijc.org/en_/Plan2014/Summary
I too, was curious regarding the higher lake level and reading the Spec on line about same. Made me dig a bit, funny thing is, it wasn't hard to see various current topics about it. Guess the Spec didn't bother to look harder for answers. Anyways, PLAN 2014 in a nut shell is a joint program between Canada and the USA, to regulate the water levels in Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence. It would seem that we will see higher water levels more often, already this week communities along the south shore of lake Ontario in NY state, are witnessing some minor flooding. Which brings me to start thinking about our nice beach and what an extra 12 to possibly 24 inches higher lake water will do to our beach and erosion? Yesterday's storm was tame compared to earlier ones this year with the wind yet the waves were coming up much higher. Wondering if anyone else noticed and what your thoughts are especially when we get a strong Eastern gale wind?
