    Memorandum from the Office of the Inspector General September 29, 2009 Janet C. Herrin, WT 10D-K Jeffrey T. Parsley, EB 3G-C FINAL REPORT – INSPECTION 2009-12695-05 – REVIEW OF MELTON HILL DAM CAMPGROUND At the request of the Senior Vice President, Office of Environment and Research, we initiated reviews of the 11 Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) managed campgrounds to determine if (1) campgrounds are being operated in accordance with the program intent and (2) campgrounds' operating controls are functioning as intended. This report addresses our findings pertaining to the Melton Hill Dam Campground. We found that the campground was operating under the program intent, which is to provide public areas for recreation. During our walkdown, we noted 14 out of 57 campsites were occupied. We found that the basic operating controls were the functions of the Maintenance Foreman for Facilities at Melton Hill Dam and Campground Host.1 In summary, we found the operating controls appear to be functioning as intended and campground guidelines were generally being complied with. However, we did note some minor overall program guideline inconsistencies. BACKGROUND TVA operates some 100 public recreation areas throughout the Tennessee Valley, including campgrounds, day-use areas, and boat launching ramps. TVA manages 11 campgrounds throughout the Valley and has set out specific campground rules in various TVA documents to help guide the maintenance and operation of these campgrounds. These documents include: • Stewardship Guideline 7.2.1 - TVA's Recreation Areas • Stewardship Guideline 7.1.4 - Developed Recreation Area Rules and Regulations • Stewardship Guideline 7.1.1 - Administration of Fee Campgrounds and Pavilion Reservations 1 The Campground Host is an individual who is allowed to stay at the campground free of charge in exchange for providing some oversight functions.

ABSTRACT This investigation of the alkali-silica reactivity of four dams in the southeastern United States supplements a similar study on five dams in southwestern United States. The investigations involved an onsite inspection and laboratory studies of concrete cores. The investigative procedures included petrographic examination, relative humidity measurements, length changes of cores exposed to moist air at 100 OF and to sodium hydroxide solution, and osmotic cell measurements. A comparison or observations on the southeastern and the southwestern dams is made. The manifestations of distress due to the reaction are similar, and the effects of alkali content of the cement, different types of reactive aggregates, surface drying, and climate exposure conditions are noted. 7.
