Advisory Committees
The Land Between The Lakes Protection Act of 1998 transferred responsibility for the Land Between Lakes National Recreation Area from the Tennessee Valley Authority to the Secretary of Agriculture to be managed as a unit of the National Forest System. The Protection Act called for the establishment of the Land Between The Lakes Advisory Board to advise the Secretary on the means of promoting public participation for the land and resource management plan for the Recreation Area, and environmental education.
