This park offers many opportunities for the outdoor enthusi- asts from rafting along the Ocoee to enjoying fishing for trout in the Hiwassee River. Historical significance The Hiwassee River, included in the Tennessee Scenic River System, extends from the North Carolina line and turns west into Tennessee. This river, named after a Cherokee word meaning “a meadow place at the foot of the hills,” drains over 750,000 acres of mostly forested land. Camping Gee Creek Campground, located at the Hiwassee Scenic River site, has 47 primitive campsites all with tables, fire rings, grills, amphitheater with electricity, horseshoe pits and volley ball court. A public water supply, and a bath- house with hot showers serves the area. A large overflow camping area is also available. Additional campgrounds are available on the Ocoee River operated by the U.S. Forest Service..

    Sent via email to Bill Towson at [email protected] on December 10, 2018. TO: Georgia Department of Community Affairs, 2018 International Plumbing Code Task Force DATE: December 10, 2018 RE: Georgia State Minimum Standard Plumbing Code on Plumbing Fixture Water Efficiency Dear Department of Community Affairs, As a steadfast advocate for sustainable building practices and responsible resource use, Southface recognizes the importance of advancing water efficiency standards in Georgia. We write to express our strong support of the proposed amendment to the 2018 International Plumbing Code (IPC) submitted by the Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District (MNGWPD) on October 30, 2018. Given currently available technologies, MNGWPD’s recommendations are reasonable advancements in water efficiency standards, and it is our understanding that the resulting water, energy, and financial savings will be significant. The proposed further-reduced flow rates for showerheads, (private) lavatory faucets, and kitchen faucets will save consumers money and continue to conserve our state’s limited water resources. As Georgia’s population continues to grow, conserving water will be of increasing importance to our economy and quality of life. In addition, saving water is vitally important to Georgia’s efforts to conserve energy. Energy generated by power plants across the state is used to clean, treat, and distribute water to our homes and businesses. Electricity and gas are used to heat water in our homes and businesses for everyday use. As described in Attachment C of the Code Amendment Form submitted by MNGWPD there will be significant financial savings to home and business owners as a result of the reduced energy and water use achieved.

Eric Poplin provided information on his ongoing analysis of the Dog River sites, Jerald Ledbetter provided much information from his work on the Oconee River, James Hatch provided information on his work at the Lindsey Site, and Mark Williams provided advance copies of his excavation report on the Shinholser site as well as his thoughts on the Oconee River area. Tim Mistovich provided information about his work on the McIntosh Reserve. Tom Gresham provided data about bells recovered from Stallings Island, and Chuck Cantley provided information on his work in the West Point Reservoir. Charlotte Smith provided preliminary computer runs listing historic aboriginal sites in the State Archaeological Site Files.

Cantrell Foreword Southern Appalachian Man and the Biosphere Cooperative is made up of 11 federal and 3 state natural resource agencies. The work of SAMAB is done by participating agencies, guided by an interagency Executive Committee. SAMAB promotes the wise use of the area’s renewable resources; to increase environmental awareness of the general public; encourages environmentally compatible economic development; supports and encourages continuing research helpful to the maintenance and understanding of the region’s resources; and embarks upon a process which ensures the sharing and circulation of the results of regional research efforts. This document is a work in progress. It is intended to provide an introduction and a working guide to the diversity of fishes in Cherokee Country. It interprets the uses of these fishes by the ani·tsalaki, the Principle People. The intended audience for this document is primarily the Eastern Band of Cherokee. However, we recognize that the interest in fishes, as well as Cherokee culture extends to many others in the fields of anthropology, ichthyology, and American history. Fishes of Cherokee Country i Acknowledgements Very special thanks are owed to the Tribal Elders who recognize the importance of their culture and its preservation. Lora O. Taylor, EBCI/Tribal Historic Preservation Office, must be recognized for her persistence and encouragement with the preparation of our first approach to capture this important aspect of Cherokee tradition. Lee Clauss was instrumental in developing the idea for this work. Much of the good information on the Cherokee names of the fishes was taken from the dissertation of Dr.
