TVA's 75th Anniversary

The Tennessee Valley Authority is celebrating its 75th Anniversary in 2008. The TVA Act was signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on May 18, 1933.

TVA has a long and proud history of serving the Tennessee Valley, providing reliable, affordable electricity, supporting a thriving river system, and stimulating economic growth.

As part of the celebration, a variety of activities will take place throughout the year, including employee and retiree celebrations, events with customers and community partners, and recognition of the importance of TVA’s past and the relevance of its future.

Significant events from TVA’s past will be highlighted on this site and information and photos will be available to download on a monthly basis beginning in January, 2008.

The TVA Board will meet in Muscle Shoals on Monday, May 19, 2008, to mark the historic occasion. Watch for more information about this meeting and celebration.

TVA sites will also hold celebrations in May 2008. Watch for more information about these events.
