Safety Message:
|
The Nashville District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers wants to bring attention to the dangers present in the tail water of dams. It is mandatory at Lake Cumberland everyone in a boat, no matter their age, must properly wear a life jacket if they are located in the discharge of Wolf Creek Dam to Kendall Day-Use Ramp. Other guidelines to follow to increase water safety is to not anchor to the dam, be aware of the generation schedule, realize the generation schedule is subject to change at any given time, and wear a life jacket when on Lake Cumberland or on the tail water of Wolf Creek Dam. With the efforts of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, as well as everyone in the public we can work together to make boating a more safe and enjoyable experience!

Low Level Conditions at Lake Cumberland:
** Be careful while boating. Since Lake Cumberland's draw down in 2007 associated with ongoing repair at Wolf Creek Dam, boaters should be advised of possible navigational hazards such as rock points and shoals, islands, etc. due to lower water levels. Also, please be aware of the danger of operating a vessel at night while using GPS. With the current drawdown, many GPS units do not reflect current elevations.**
