HARWELL, Justice:

This appeal involves the ad valorem property taxation by the appellants Newberry and Laurens Counties of property owned by respondent Greenwood County. The Tax Commission found that the dam and hydroelectric plant at Buzzard's Roost, but not the bed of Lake Greenwood, were taxable by the Counties. The trial court held that none of the properties were taxable. We affirm.
