About this map

Clinch Mountain and the parallel ridges of the Richland Knobs dominate this Grainger County landscape during a period of significant regional transformation. The Tennessee Valley Authority was actively shaping the northern reaches of the quadrangle, where the newly forming Norris Reservoir began to fill the valleys of Log Mountain Valley Creek and Bullen Creek. This advance sheet records the exact 1020-foot elevation contour intended for the reservoir, illustrating how the rising waters redefined the boundaries near Beach Grove Sch.
