Thread: Lowering of Greers Ferry Lake

Little Rock District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Yesterday at 1:18pm ·
We will continue a drawdown of Greers Ferry Lake this week to lower the lake to complete the rehabilitation of a hydropower turbine intake gate.
The lake will be drawn down, to possibly as low as elevation 457, during the next 12 to 14 days. Depending on the weather, the Corps will hold the lake at this level for six to eight weeks to complete the work.
During the drawdown, boat dock owners are advised to keep an eye on their docks and move them as needed to prevent them from grounding as the lake recedes. Boaters should exercise extreme caution because submerged stumps and shallow areas will be more prominent.
Also, boaters should be cautious when launching because of damage or sediment build up that may have occurred at the ends of the ramps. It is impossible to determine which ramps might be affected.
During the drawdown, rangers will be actively patrolling the lake for unauthorized off-road vehicle use. Unauthorized operation of motorized vehicles around the shoreline and on the lakebed is strictly prohibited.
