I think they are always low on water as BW will not replace the leaking gates. We had to wait while water levels were brought up before they would allow the boats through. There is usually a sensible level on the top pound, it's just down the locks (especially the lower pounds) that there is a problem. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBarmhecKnU If you don't like Bjork turn the volume down. For those who don't want to watch it all, wait for it to download, and then go to 4:30.
