3 Weeks Before Dam Break, Mich. AG Sued to RAISE Lake Level to Save Mussels
"In her ongoing audition to be Joe Biden’s veep pick, Michigan Governess Gretchen Whitmer all but convicted a private dam owner for the disastrous floods that struck the middle of the state last Wednesday.
However, it wasn’t the dam company that was trying to save a few clams—it was Whitmer’s radical attorney general, Dana Nessel.

Nessel was suing the dam company to raise the lake level three feet in order to save mussels—both endangered and common—and in their response, the dam company cited safety as a reason for not doing so...

For decades, federal regulators demanded changes to the design of the Edenville Dam to make it more likely to withstand heavy rains and avoid flooding.

So when Michigan regulators assumed oversight of the dam in late 2018 after its owners lost their federal license to generate energy, they took action.

To protect mussels...The dam’s owner, Boyce Hydro Power LLC, claims Michigan pressured it to raise lake levels before the flood and the company took steps to lower them because “mis-operation could pose a significant risk to the Village of Sanford, Northwood University, the City of Midland, and other downstream areas,” according to a lawsuit last month...

This is not the first time that Attorney General Dana Nessel’s priorities—and propriety—have come into question.  

At the height of Michigan’s COVID-19 lockdown, she treated the state to this insightful tweet:

Am I the only one who regrets not totally liquidating my 401K and investing the whole thing into the business that manufactures Real Dolls?

Maybe Dana just needs to learn when to clam up."
