Carters Lake, owned by the US Army Corps of Engineers, is a man-made lake without private docks or houses along its shore. [2] This lake is fed by the Coosawattee River that runs between Ellijay and Chatsworth, and was formed by Carters Dam , the tallest earthen dam east of the Mississippi, which was completed in 1977.
Below the dam is a 1,000-acre (400 ha) retention and re-regulation lake (Reregulation Reservoir). The hydroelectric plant is of the pumped storage type. That is, during off-peak hours the water from the retention lake is pumped back up to Carters Lake for use in generating power during the next time of peak demand.
