    Default The Ville water level


    Trying to get idea of water level? One site( Lakes on line-http://www.shelbyville.uslakes.info/Level.asp) says 539.53 MSL- another(/www.mvs-wc.usace.army.mil/dresriv.html) says going to 608.09.
    Can someone explain it briefly?
    Thank you

    This is the site you should use: https://www.mvs-wc.usace.army.mil/dresriv.html . It is the official COE site. It's not going to it is at 608.09. It is going to 609.5

    I'm not smart enough to answer that. I know the first site uses MSL (mean sea level) for it's elevation. I think the COE uses a different standard!? Marking spots (gps) should make no difference
