Based on the elevated lake temperatures, action to align circulating water to the LLI (cooler water) is necessary to prevent exceeding discharge temperature limits. Operation of the LLI pumps is sometimes needed during this time of year to comply with the water permit. Substantial effort is taken to avoid this alignment due to the potential to accelerate the natural phenomenon of oxygen depletion in the lower depths of Lake Norman that occurs as water temperature increases. The normal seasonal oxygen level changes can stress the fish population in that depth of the lake.
