My brother lives in the area and says, “Now is the time to take some heavy equipment into the lakes and actually make them deeper. Lanier is always dirty because it is so shallow.” So, why not make them deeper when they are bone dry?
Lanier is always dirty because of all the traffic on the lake. I remember back in the 70's when you could see the bottom of the lake in 20' of water in the summertime. We used to dive for golf balls off shore from the Lake Lanier Islands golf course. You could easily see golf balls from 20-25' away. Not so anymore.....
