DESCRIPTION:Water Level Control on Lake Ontario and Proposed Plan 2014\n\n\n\nfrom\n\n\n\nGuest Speakers Dr. Dan Barletta and Dr. Frank Sciremammano\n\n\n\n\n\nConstruction of the hydroelectric dam and navigation infrastructure on the St. Lawrence River in the late 1950?s has allowed for limited control of the water level of Lake. Since then\, the outflows have been regulated to balance the competing interests both upstream and downstream of the dam. From the Fall of 1999 thru 2006\, the US and Canada sanctioned a $20 million dollar study through the International Joint Commission (IJC) to see if the current lake Ontario Regulation plan could be updated. This study developed 3 alternate plans for consideration. The current plan proposed by the IJC\, termed Plan 2014\, is far more radical than any of the recommended plans and will create a disproportionate amount of damage to the south shore of Lake Ontario\, with the damages centered on Monroe County. A review of the history\, management and mechanics of the flow control will be provided in this presentation along with a description of what the future may hold if Plan 2014 is implemented.\n\n\n\nDr. Dan Barletta:\n\nDr. Dan Barletta is a lakeshore resident and in private dental practice in the Town of Greece.
