The Virginia-based Southern Environmental Law Center is calling for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to declare, as part of an environmental assessment, that Hall County’s proposed Glades Reservoir “is not needed.” Such a move would protect Flat Creek, and the reservoir “would decrease overall water availability through increased evaporation,” states a report released Thursday. “And evidence suggests its true purpose may be to create waterfront property for a future development.”
