On the side of the latrine is a bulletin board that the troop can use to post assignments, notices, and duty rosters. Camp Comer has two air-conditioned shower and restroom facilities for camp-wide use. Patrol sites are pre-established in each campsite. Most campsites have some Adarondaks that sleep four and tents on platforms that sleep two. Some sites may be occupied by more than one troop. Troops are encouraged to construct gateways to their campsites. The Hawk Campsite is a HANDICAPPED ONLY site, if you do not have a scout or leader that is handicapped that site will not be available. There are four troop / campsites; each campsite has a latrine, picnic table and fire ring. Water may be obtained at spigots near the pavilion. Garbage is disposed of at the Tannehill trash dumpster. Each unit is responsible for providing its trash bags and taking garbage to the trash dumpster. The campsites have a number and a name.

  • Tennessee Reference Stream Morphology and Large Woody Debris Assessment
    Tennessee Reference Stream Morphology and Large Woody Debris Assessment Report and Guidebook Prepared for: Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Prepared by: Jennings Environmental, LLC December 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report includes reference stream morphology and large woody debris data collected throughout Tennessee in 2015-2017. Hydraulic geometry data are presented as regional curves for Ecoregions 66, 67, 68/69, 71, and 65/74 to support stream assessment and restoration planning. Morphology relationships describe bankfull channel dimensions, pattern, and profile measurements in relation to channel-forming discharge and watershed drainage area. Large woody debris (LWD) data collected at reference streams serve as an indicator of natural stream conditions in forested floodplains. These databases and relationships are valuable for assessing disturbed streams to evaluate degree of departure from equilibrium, selecting and planning restoration projects to improve natural stream functions, and monitoring changes in stream conditions in undisturbed and restored stream systems. These databases should be supplemented with additional information collected during site assessment and restoration planning to improve understanding of local stream conditions throughout Tennessee. The morphology data collection included 114 undisturbed streams ranging in width from 3 to 132 feet with watershed drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 117 square miles. Wherever available, United States Geological Survey (USGS) gage station sites were surveyed to provide long-term hydrologic information close to the reference stream. Bankfull stage indicators at a USGS gage provided the opportunity to quantify the channel-forming discharge and exceedance probability of this flow event. For reference streams with no gages, natural equilibrium stream segments with clearly identifiable incipient-floodplain bankfull stage indicators were surveyed to determine morphology parameters.
