My read is this is another cheap attempt to blame environmental regs for something they didn't cause. According to the article, the draw down permit was to prevent ice damage to the gates, NOT to repair or upgrade an inadequate spillway. The permit was denied because it could harm mussels AND there are alternative ways to protect ice damage to the gates. Seems like Phil is right that this was a perfect storm of deferred maintenance and regulatory failure, but from this article, I'm not seeing that the mussels are anything more than a convenient scapegoat.
