An article just appeared on courierjournal.com that outlines the Corps plan to fix Wolf Creek Dam. They are pulling it to ten feet below winter pool starting NOW, and the end result will be the lake will spend at least a year at more than 40 feet below the tree line. According to the article, 90% of the boat ramps will be useless during this period. So the questions are...

1) What is the impact on the fishery? 1a) Specifically, what is the impact on stripers, since they are in need of very deep, cool water?

2) What is the economic impact? 2a) Did the Corps bother to warn the local merchants?

3) Where are the ramps that are in the accesible 10%? 3a) How will this affect tournaments for the coming year?
