I'm kinda confused, i think, but are you guys saying the Powersite Dam gets completely under water? Like a ripple in the flow where the dam is?

Bingo. Two lakes become one when Taney tailwater matches Taney elevation

Can they still make electricity under those conditions?

Powersite I don't think so.  No head pressure.

There's still a pretty good drop between lakes.  Taney's tailrace level is 712.5 feet.  It's 702.5 at Ozark Beach

Interesting... it drops 10 feet from dam to dam.  I didn't realize that.

I don't see a reading for BS at Powersite.

Bottom line is that there's plenty of water going over PS for a fish to swim over.
