Just my two cents, but how is it that the canal companies become the "OWNERS" of the reservoir. Ya I get it, they own the water rights but wern't dams built with tax payer money? I'm sure the canal companies didn't fork out the millions $$$ it takes to build these dams. I guess it's just always bothered me that they seem to have the final say on everything that has to do with the lakes. We (tax payers) built Twin Lakes reservoir now we have to pay Twin Lakes Canal Company $5 every time I put my boat on their water. I wish the governement would buy me a lake, and then let me make up the rules, and keep all the money I make. Sure would be nice.
