1981 Map of Watts Bar Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Watts Bar Lake and the winding Tennessee River dominate this regional landscape during a period of significant industrial and energy development. The map documents the footprint of the Tennessee Valley Authority's infrastructure, from the Watts Bar Dam to the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, then under construction, and the proposed Clinch River Breeder Reactor. This era saw the recent creation of Tellico Lake and the established waters of Fort Loudoun Lake, reflecting the total transformation of the river valley into a managed reservoir system.
