MELTON HILL LAKE NORRIS LAKE - 809 miles of shoreline - 173 miles of shoreline FISHING: Norris Lake has over 56 species of fish and is well known for its striper fishing. There are also catches of brown Miles of Intrepid and rainbow trout, small and largemouth bass, walleye, and an abundant source of crappie. The Tennessee state record for FISHING: Predominant fish are musky, striped bass, hybrid striped bass, scenic gorges Daniel brown trout was caught in the Clinch River just below Norris Dam. Striped bass exceeding 50 pounds also lurk in the lake’s white crappie, largemouth bass, and skipjack herring. The state record saugeye and sandstone Boone was caught in 1998 at the warmwater discharge at Bull Run Steam Plant, which bluffs awaiting blazed a cool waters. Winter and summer striped bass fishing is excellent in the lower half of the lake. Walleye are stocked annually. your visit. trail West. is probably the most intensely fished section of the lake for all species. Another Nestled in the foothills of the Cumberland Mountains, about 20 miles north of Knoxville just off I-75, is Norris Lake. It extends 1 of 2 places 56 miles up the Powell River and 73 miles into the Clinch River. Since the lake is not fed by another major dam, the water productive and popular spot is on the tailwaters below the dam, but you’ll find both in the U.S. largemouths and smallmouths throughout the lake. Spring and fall crappie fishing is one where you can has the reputation of being cleaner than any other in the nation. -

United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE Asheville Field Office 160 Zillicoa Street Asheville, North Carolina 28801 February 21, 2012 Mr. Marshall Olson, APGI – Tapoco Project, P.O. Box 576 Badin, NC 28009 Subject: Comments on LIHI recertification, Tapoco Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. P-2169) Dear Marshall: The purpose of this letter is to provide information for Alcoa Power Generating Inc (APGI) to use in its application for recertification by the Low Impact Hydropower Institute (LIHI). On July 25, 2005, the LIHI certified Alcoa's Tapoco Hydroelectric Project as Low Impact. That certificate is set to expire July 25, 2013. The Tapoco project consists of four powerhouses and four dams in eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina totaling 350 megawatts (MW) of electric generation capacity, which power Alcoa Tennessee Operations near Knoxville. The project is located on the Little Tennessee and Cheoah Rivers and is owned and operated by Alcoa Power Generating Inc. The Tapoco Project includes four developments - Santeetlah Development, Cheoah Development, Calderwood Development, and Chilhowee Development. The Tapoco Project extends along the Little Tennessee River from about River Mile 33 to just above RM 60, downstream of the Tennessee Valley Authority Fontana Dam. Chilhowee, Calderwood and Cheoah developments and Santeetlah Powerhouse are located on the Little Tennessee River. Santeetlah Dam and Reservoir are located on the Cheoah River, a tributary to the Little Tennessee River. The Project Boundary encompasses much of the Cheoah River corridor downstream of the Santeetlah Dam. Background USFWS Participation. The Fish and Wildlife Service was an active participant in the collaborative relicensing process. -

"Just Mention Electricity and the Most Humdrum Citizen Immediately
"Just mention electricity and the most humdrum citizen immediately becomes a poet, and when we think of it, there is no other servamt of humanity that performs so many useful duties for us." Towards an understanding of the history and material culture of Pre-TVA Hydroelectric Development in Tennessee, 1900 - 1933. PART I. By James B. Jones, Jr. The technology and design of electrical systems and the institutions formed to administer them matured together. In his book Networks of Power, Thomas P. Hughes, perhaps the foremost historian of the field, reveals three stages in the development of light and power in the United States from roughly 1890 to 1930. Varying with small differences in detail, the evolution of Tennessee's electrical supply system before the advent of the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) correspond to the delineations Hughes discerns. This is not to suggest, however, that the evolution of hydroelectric power generation occurred in a lock-step manner, o- ne phase leading inevitably, logically and instantaneously to the next in an orderly, chronological procession of pre-ordained events. Indeed, development was more spasmodic as circumscribed by the temporal limits of this narrative. The main characteristic of the first stage was the emergence of low voltage, small, direct current (d.c.) lighting companies. As the forerunner of the contemporary electrical utility industry, these centrally located hydroelectric plants supplied light and electricity only to nearby municipalities. Because such low-voltage d.c. systems as these could serve only the small geographic areas to which they were confined by want of future developments in long distance electrical transmission, the number, not the size, of hydroelectric plants grew. -

REf PORT TO THE CONGRESS BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES The Tennessee Valley Authority's Tellico -Dam Project .. -Costs, Alternatives, And Benefits In January 1977 the nearly completed $116 million Tellico Dam project was stopped because it would harm the habitat of the snail darter--an endangered species of fish. Several alternatives to the project have been proposed. However, neither the current pro ject nor alternatives are supported by cur- rent benefit-cost analyses. ' The Tennessee Valley Authority should up date the remaining benefit-cost data for the Tellico project and alternatives to it. The Congress should prohibit the Authority from further work on the project and should not acton the proposed legislation to exempt the project from the Endangered Species Act until more current information is received. -
