Recreation Releases from TVA Dams
Boating, fishing, and water skiing are the most popular types of recreational activities on TVA-managed reservoirs. But a growing number of people are interested in tailwater recreation — whitewater rafting, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing in the area downstream of TVA dams.
To support these recreation activities, TVA maintains enough water flow to support fish and other aquatic life, and it provides scheduled releases so that paddlers will know when they can count on whitewater flows below eight TVA dams. Use the links below to view daily water release schedules for these projects:
Warning! Flood events, unexpected generating unit outages, and other conditions can cause water release schedules to change with little or no notice. Get information on current releases and updates on predicted releases for the next two days here.
