GROAT, Director For information on the water program in Tennessee write to: District Chief, Water Resources Division U.S. Geological Survey 640 Grassmere Park, Suite 100 Nashville, Tennessee 37211 2005 PREFACE This volume of the annual hydrologic data report of Tennessee is one of a series of annual reports that document hydrologic data gathered from the U.S. Geological Survey’s surface- and ground-water data-collection networks in each State, Puerto Rico, and the Trust Territories. These records of streamflow, ground-water levels, and quality of water provide the hydrologic informa- tion needed by State, local, and Federal agencies, and the private sector for developing and man- aging our Nation’s land and water resources. This report is the culmination of a concerted effort by dedicated personnel of the U.S. Geo- logical Survey who collected, compiled, analyzed, verified, and organized the data, and who typed, edited, and assembled the report. In addition to the authors, who had primary responsibility for assuring that the information contained herein is accurate, complete, and adheres to Geologi- cal Survey policy and established guidelines, most of the data were collected, computed, and pro- cessed from the subdistrict offices. The following individuals supervised the collection, processing, and tabulation of the data: Terry D. Phillips, Knoxville Jerry W. Garrett, Memphis J. Tim Hamilton, Nashville The following individuals contributed to the collection, processing, and preparation of the data: M.W. Bennett C.F. Glover H.L. Shook D.E. Butner J.A. Kingsbury R. Thomas J.W.

ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 words) Water resources data for the 2004 water year for Tennessee consists of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground water. This report contains records for water discharge at 107 gaging stations; stage only for 1 gaging station, ele- vation and contents for 32 lakes reservoirs; water quality at 18 gaging stations and 17 wells; and water levels for 8 observation wells; and 1 precipitation station. Also included are data for 84 crest stage partial-record stations. Ad- ditional water data were collected at various stream sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program, and are published as miscellaneous measurements and analyses. These data represent the part of the National Water Data System operated by the US Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in Tennessee. 14. SUBJECT TERMS 15.

SECTION I. ENDANGERED SPECIES, GENERAL SEASONS, AND STATEWIDE CREEL, POSSESSION, AND LENGTH LIMITS. A. ENDANGERED SPECIES All fish identified as endangered or threatened or listed as in need of management as proclaimed by the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission may not be taken. B. GAME FISH SPECIES The season is open year-round on the following species, unless otherwise specified in this proclamation. The possession limit is twice the daily creel limit. Only the daily creel limit may be possessed while afield. It shall also be unlawful to possess while afield any fish, which has been altered to the extent that its species and/or total body length cannot be determined. The length of a fish shall be determined with the fish laying on a flat ruler, the mouth closed, and the caudal (tail) fin lobes squeezed so as to produce the maximum length. The mouth of the fish may not be manipulated or extended. Unless stated otherwise a slot limit is a protected length range within which no fish may be harvested. Statewide daily creel and length limits for fish species are listed in the table below which includes exceptions for specific waterbodies. Additional exceptions are listed in Sections Ill, IV, V, and VI. See Special Definitions (Section XV) for reservoir boundary and specific area descriptions.

Previous studies were conducted in 1965, 1967 (cursory study, primarily focusing on al- gae), 1974, 1977, 1980, 1990 and 1997. Elements of the 2010 study included analysis of land cover, basic environmental water chemistry, attached algae and aquatic macrophytes, aquatic insects, non-insect macroinvertebrates, and fish. For each study element, field samples were collected and analyzed from Scientists from the Academy's Patrick Center for Environmental Research zones located on the South Fork Holston River have conducted seven major environmental monitoring studies on the (Zones 2, 3 and 5), Big Sluice (Zone 4), mainstem South Fork Holston River since 1965. Holston River (Zone 6), and Horse Creek (Zones HC1and HC2), the approximate locations of which are shown below. The design of the 2010 study was very similar to that of previous surveys, allowing comparisons among surveys. In addition, two areas of potential local impacts were assessed for the first time: Big Tree Spring (BTS, located on the South Fork within Zone 2) and Kit Bottom (KU and KL in the Big Sluice, upstream of Zone 4).

  • "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.

Since that time, the Service's Fisheries Program, including the National Fish Hatchery System (NFHS), has been involved in, among other things, mitigating the losses of fish habitats, fish populations, and fishing opportunities. The U.S. Congress and the Courts have provided laws, appropriations, and orders which have authorized the construction and operation of dams, and other water diversion projects. The construction and operation of these Federal water resource development projects have had impacts on many water systems and their respective fish populations. The construction and operation of these projects have resulted in the need to build and operate fish hatcheries to provide direct mitigation (e.g., provide disease-free fish eggs or fish for stocking) for waters impaired by Federal water resource development projects.
