  • 2019 March Newsletter
    2019 March Newsletter March 2019 Heavy Rains Fill Temporary Coffer Dam; Delay Work on Replacement Lock at Chickamauga Dam One of Chattanooga's biggest construction projects is being delayed after heavy rains filled in a temporary coffer dam erected to help build a new $758 million replacement lock at the Chickamauga Dam. Within the new 110-foot- by-600-foot lock being built beneath the dam, a major excavation project was completed in January just before record February rainfall forced the Tennessee Valley Authority to open up most of the spillways at the Chickamauga Dam and raise the Tennessee River by 12 feet above its normal level. The higher river and heavy rain complicated efforts to keep the water out of the coffer dam, where crews have removed more than 100,000 cubic yards of dirt and rock to dig down 35 feet to the riverbed. Adam Walker, project manager for the Chickamauga Lock replacement project for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, said the excavation equipment was largely removed from the lock chamber early last month, but the rains a few weeks later delayed the start of the next phase of the lock construction. "The decision was made last month that if we were going to be battling high waters and having to burn a lot of fuel trying to keep the dewatering pumps running to keep the water out of the coffer dam, it just made more sense to turn off the pumps and allow the coffer dam to fill until conditions return to normal," Walker said.

  • Management Plan for the Wilbur Tailwater Trout Fishery 2015-2020
    Management Plan for the Wilbur Tailwater Trout Fishery 2015-2020 Prepared by: Jim W. Habera Rick D. Bivens Bart D. Carter Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency March 2015 Wilbur Tailwater Trout Fishery Management Plan (2015-2020) I. Management Goal and Strategies The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency’s (TWRA’s) management goal for the Wilbur tailwater (Watauga River) is to maintain a quality trout fishery throughout the tailwater capable of providing a variety of opportunities to the anglers who enjoy this resource. TWRA’s primary strategies for attaining the management goal for the Wilbur tailwater will be to emphasize the excellent wild brown trout Salmo trutta fishery while continuing to provide put- and-grow and put-and-take fisheries for rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. The existing Quality Zone (QZ) offers a management opportunity for providing anglers with higher catch rates for larger trout through special regulations. Efforts will continue during 2015-2020 to ensure that the QZ is contributing to the accomplishment of the Wilbur tailwater management goal. II. Background The Watauga River flows northwest from the mountains of northwestern North Carolina into Carter County, Tennessee and is impounded near Hampton, forming The Tennessee Valley Authority’s (TVA) Watauga Reservoir (6,432 acres). Most of the reservoir’s 468 mi.2 watershed is forested and much of the Tennessee portion lies within the Cherokee National Forest. Wilbur Dam is located about 3 mi. downstream of Watauga Dam and impounds a small reservoir (~72 acres). Wilbur Dam’s four turbines are capable of releasing a total flow of 2,680 ft3/s (cfs) and one turbine has a much higher capacity 3 (1,766 cfs) than the other three, offering more discharge options than at other Tennessee hydroelectric facilities (Bettoli 1999).
