Book excerpt: The Watts Bar Dam is strategically located as a multiple-purpose water-control project on the main Tennessee River at river mile 529.9 about midway between Chattanooga and Knoxville, Tenn. Congress, on March 16, 1939, made funds available for the start of construction of this project during the ensuing fiscal year, and on July 1, 1939, construction was started. It was the fifth main river dam constructed by TVA in its program for the unified development of the Tennessee River system. This report comprises a record of the more important facts concerning the planning, design, construction, costs, and initial operations of this major unit of the TVA water-control system.

Download or read book Tennessee Valley Authority in Vintage Postcards written by Mark Allen Stevenson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2005-08-24 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created by the federal government in 1933 to revitalize a region twice the size of New England, the Tennessee Valley Authority began as an experiment of unprecedented proportions. Seen here through picture postcards, the dramatic achievements of the TVA take on a personal aspect, as individuals visit the hydroelectric projects and enjoy the newly created recreational opportunities. Tangible benefits are also documented, such as improved navigation, new roads and bridges, and abundant and inexpensive electricity. Influenced by such visionaries as Gifford Pinchot, Theodore Roosevelt, and George Norris, the agency also dealt with regional issues, including river commerce, soil conservation, and flood control.

Book excerpt: The Watts Bar Steam Plant is the first fuel-burning electric power plant constructed by the TVA. The first two of its four 60,000-kilowatt generating units were placed in commercial operation in February and March 1942 at a time when the products of industry and agriculture in the valley region were critical items in the war effort. These units increased the continuous energy capacity of the TVA system to approximately 830,000 kilowatts and the system peak to about 1,100,000 kilowatts. The further addition of Cherokee, Chatuge, and Nottely Dams and the down-river units raised the continuous energy of the system to 960,000 kilowatts and the peak capability to about 1,300,000 kilowatts by the fall of 1942. The third Watts Bar Steam Plant unit began operation in February 1943 and the fourth in April 1945 - important factors in keeping ahead of system demands.

Download or read book The Garden in the Machine written by Avigail Sachs and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2023-04-13 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tennessee Valley Authority was the largest single agency created under the auspices of the New Deal legislation. Until 1933, when the project was initiated, the Tennessee Valley was known romantically as "a region of untapped potential" and, less romantically, as one of the most impoverished and isolated areas of the country. The TVA was responsible for three large-scale environmental projects–the river, land, and power machines–but the project also had social, even utopian, goals. In service to the latter, the TVA put together a cadre of regional planners, architects, and landscape architects that Avigail Sachs calls the "atelier TVA." These professionals contributed to the design of the system of multipurpose dams, arranged visitor centers and scenic routes, built housing and communities (although both were segregated), and instigated a regional recreation industry. In addition to its planning and design history audience, this volume will be of interest to environmental historians and historians of the Progressive Era. Publication of this volume was assisted by a grant from Furthermore: a program of the J. M. Kaplan Fund.

Book excerpt: Fort Loudon Dam was the last of seven main-river dams proposed for construction in TVA's report to Congress dated March 31, 1936, and is the upper link in the chain of dams for navigation envisioned in the TVA Act. A record of the more important facts concerning planning, design, construction, cost, and initial operations of this major unit in the integrated water-control system is contained herein as Technical Report No. 11. It has been prepared from detailed reports in the files of TVA and has been edited to present special coverage to new or unprecedented procedures with relatively less emphasis on standard practices of engineering and construction.

Download or read book The Kentucky Project written by Tennessee Valley Authority and published by . This book was released on 1951 with total page 916 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kentucky Dam, the lowermost and the largest of the multiple-purpose projects of the Tennessee River system, is the key to effective control of discharges from the Tennessee, the largest tributary of the Ohio River. Located at river mile 22.4, Kentucky Dam is only 67.4 river-miles above Cairo, Illinois, and its large reservoir with more than 4,000,000 acre-feet of flood storage capacity occupies as strategic position for the reduction of flood crests on the lower Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. The navigation lock at this project forms the lower gateway to the 184-mile long Kentucky Reservoir, one of a chain of nine reservoirs extending a year-round 9-foot navigation channel more than 600 miles to Knoxville, Tennessee, and connects this system of reservoirs to the major inland waterways of the great central Mississippi Valley with outlets for navigation to the Great Lakes and the Gulf of Mexico.
