There is obviously no communication between the Santee cooper and lake wateree and I don’t know if there ever was any. The wateree river was between 6-7 ft all last week and projected to go to 13 ft Saturday a week ago. Since last Saturday, it has been between 18 and 20 feet up until yesterday. The common sense in me would say to make room ahead of the rain not wait until it is completely full and not flood everyone below. If you are a landowner on the river, you have to give the Ward to Duke energy and Lake wateree.
"You are Citadel Men, you have no pension for failure, you wear the Ring, you never let a friend down, you will be good fathers, husbands, and leaders in the armed forces and industry, you are strong in heart, body, and mind. You protect such things as Honor and Fidelity. Your virtues matter not only in wealth, but in the richness of family, you are the last of the knights."
- late President Ronald Reagan
