this info came from the Tennessee Valley Athority (state owned web site)
when I get a moment to spend on it, I will see if I can find the numbers of plants and areas. I am sure it is available, it will just take some time to find it.,
I think some of these lakes are parts of the same lake and at one time they were seprated by land masses connected by run offs in to the cumberland river and when they built the levy dam sistems they created a much larger lake or lakes. I will have to dig up the history on it to be sure. I do know when they built those reservares they created one of the best fisheries in the world. Deap Lakes above seal level just seem to grow monsters... the higher and deaper the bigger the monsters in the drink. Tennessee has the best growing season in the world for worm water species....
by the way did you see the movie deleverance?
if you didnt you might want to check it out, baised on a true story about a group of canoers migrating the river just before it was flooded, dont let the kids in ear shot when you watche it. I watched it as a young teen on regular tv, I thought it to be a bit risky then, (subject wise) good film.
