Water levels on lakes in South Carolina and Georgia can now be monitored using LakeLevelAlert.com. Visitors to the website can register for free to receive emails. After registering with LakeLevelAlert.com, you will be able to create one or multiple low water and high water level alerts for your lake.

When LLA detects that the water level for your lake has either risen or fallen to the level you set for one of your alerts, LLA sends you a lake alert email that notifies you of the current lake level conditions and instructs you on what action to take.

LLA currently monitors lake levels for 63 U.S lakes.

Examples of how LakeLevelAlert.com helps:

• Lake homeowners who need to know when to move their docks in or out due to changing water level conditions.
• Boaters who need to know when lake levels may cause hazardous conditions in the areas that they boat. When levels are low, hazards such as trees, stumps, rocks and shallow areas may be exposed. Narrow channels may become impassable. When water levels are too high, passing under bridges and overpasses may present a problem for large boats or boats with masts.
• Real Estate agencies who want to make sure docks associated with lake properties they list remain afloat or are accessible.
• Shared dock communites where lake levels could affect, strand or damage multiple watercraft.
• Fishermen wanting to know if lake levels will permit them to travel up favorite channels and creeks.
• Those wanting to know if their preferred boat ramp is usable.
• Those wanting to avoid having their boats become "dock locked" if water levels in coves become too low. Dock locked meaning the boat cannot be removed from the slip due to low lake levels either causing the boat to become grounded or the other side of the cove encroaching to the point that the boat cannot be removed.
• Those wanting to know when to adjust the position of items such as beach chairs, paddle boats, canoes, picnic tables etc. on the shoreline of their property due to rising or falling lake levels.
