what? No Lake Austin???

If you love Lake Austin and wouldn't want anything to happen to it then you might need to be a little concern and read this .
All over the city of Austin from media to online chats there’s been a rumor that LCRA (Lower Colorado River Authority’s were going to discuss to lower the water level at Lake Austin at this Septembers board meeting LCRA’s Manager of Water Operations Ryan Rowney told Kvue that the rumor was true but was only a consideration for the future to help with Lake Travis soon to be drought. This issue will not be discussed in this month’s board meeting but is only a consideration. The reason for this though was because lake Austin has been on steady-level since when it’s been created, but lake Travis has been losing about 12,000 acre-feet each week, and according Rowney without a great amount of rainfall by October we will hit record low. So if you are concerned about the lakes in Austin and what the LCRA will decide on, read more on LCRA addresses rumors of lowering LakeAustin.
