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.

    SOUTHERN BLUE RIDGE ECOREGIONAL CONSERVATION PLAN Summary and Implementation Document March 2000 THE NATURE CONSERVANCY and the SOUTHERN APPALACHIAN FOREST COALITION Southern Blue Ridge Ecoregional Conservation Plan Summary and Implementation Document Citation: The Nature Conservancy and Southern Appalachian Forest Coalition. 2000. Southern Blue Ridge Ecoregional Conservation Plan: Summary and Implementation Document. The Nature Conservancy: Durham, North Carolina. This document was produced in partnership by the following three conservation organizations: The Nature Conservancy is a nonprofit conservation organization with the mission to preserve plants, animals and natural communities that represent the diversity of life on Earth by protecting the lands and waters they need to survive. The Southern Appalachian Forest Coalition is a nonprofit organization that works to preserve, protect, and pass on the irreplaceable heritage of the region’s National Forests and mountain landscapes. The Association for Biodiversity Information is an organization dedicated to providing information for protecting the diversity of life on Earth. ABI is an independent nonprofit organization created in collaboration with the Network of Natural Heritage Programs and Conservation Data Centers and The Nature Conservancy, and is a leading source of reliable information on species and ecosystems for use in conservation and land use planning. Photocredits: Robert D. Sutter, The Nature Conservancy EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This first iteration of an ecoregional plan for the Southern Blue Ridge is a compendium of hypotheses on how to conserve species nearest extinction, rare and common natural communities and the rich and diverse biodiversity in the ecoregion. The plan identifies a portfolio of sites that is a vision for conservation action, enabling practitioners to set priorities among sites and develop site-specific and multi-site conservation strategies.

  • Hiwassee Geographic Area Updated: June 1, 2017
    Hiwassee Geographic Area June 1, 2017 **Disclaimer: The specific descriptions, goals, desired conditions, and objectives only apply to the National Forest System Lands within the Hiwassee Geographic Area. However, nearby communities and surrounding lands are considered and used as context. Hiwassee Geographic Area Updated: June 1, 2017 Description of area The Hiwassee Geographic Area is defined by large rivers running through broad flat valleys and two large lakes surrounded by mountains that provide distinct visitor experiences. The broad river valleys lie at lower elevations than other geographic areas in North Carolina’s National Forests. The steep mountains of this area support short leaf pine, mixed hardwood forests, and large pockets of eastern hemlock. Passing through a gentler mountain landscape, the major rivers of the region include the Hiwassee, Valley, and Nottley Rivers which flow into the Chatuge, Hiwassee, and Apalachia lakes. These rivers and the lakes created by Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) dams provide reactional opportunities for fishing, boating, and other water sports. The lakes of this geographic area form a chain that is home to a diverse number of plant, animal, and warm water fish species that are native to riparian floodplain ecosystems. Prior to European and Anglo-American settlement along with westward expansion, the Hiwassee geographic area was home to the Cherokee and Creek tribes. This area contains several landscape features that figure most prominently in Tribal history and have significant meaning to Tribal identities and beliefs. These locations are important traditional and ceremonial areas for the Cherokee. Communities within this geographic area include Murphy, Hayesville, Warne, Peachtree, Brasstown, Hiwassee Dam, Ranger and the smaller incorporated areas of Unaka and Violet.

    Surveyors on a What surveyor is not fascinated with quad maps? How about a 2000’ offset in a state boundary? Add some neat labels like “Montgomery’s Corner” and “30 Mile Post”, a few good friends, a love of the mountains, and a plan is born. Looking north at Hightower Bald and its neighbors on the drive to Blue Ridge Gap. Displayed with permission • The American Surveyor • Vol. 8 No. 6 • Copyright 2011 Cheves Media • www.Amerisurv.com Busman’s Holiday on a his “offset” is on the north slope of North Georgia’s Hightower Bald, some 4,000 feet in elevation. Its tale is a continuation of the story of the Camak Stone, described by Bart Crattie in the Nov/Dec 2009 Georgia Land Surveyor. In 1818, mathematician James Camak, surveyor Hugh Montgomery, and others headed east from the incorrectly positioned Camak Stone. Though intending to follow the 35th parallel to the corner of Tennessee on the northern boundary of Georgia, their entire line is south of that parallel. They also continued well past the Georgia/Tennessee boundary to set a mark that became known as “Montgomery’s Corner”. In 1819, Camak and a different group headed west from Ellicott’s Rock, which had been accurately set in 1811 at the NE corner of Georgia. They veered south of the 35th parallel but still found themselves nearly a half mile north of Montgomery’s Corner. Rather than correct the error, they merely marked a north/ south line connecting the new “30 Mile Post” and the previous year’s Montgomery’s Corner.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Census Data on Urbanized Areas, from 1970 to 1990, Atlanta experienced a 161.3% growth in total land area, while Chattanooga showed an expansion of 120.1%. These two metro areas are linked by Interstate 75, and as they grow together, they will consume much unprotected land in the fifteen-county region. While population growth is a factor in land consumption, development patterns are as important. From 1970 to 1990, the population of Detroit decreased by 7%, while sprawl increased by 28%.
