John's Journal... Entry 161, Day 1 THEY SAVED TAILRACE FISHING Solving the September 11 Tailrace Problem EDITOR'S NOTE: Sergeant Karyn Carter works with the TVA Police Department in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, as the first-line supervisor for the Muscle Shoals sector of the western district of the Tennessee River. QUESTION: What happened on September 11, 2001, and what
was TVA's response? QUESTION: What did he tell you all to do? QUESTION: So all of the people in law enforcement for
TVA went to the facilities that they where responsible for, right? QUESTION: How long did that alert last? QUESTION: What was your response about closing the tailrace?
How did that come about, what did that mean, and how did you all do it?
QUESTION: How did you manage that? Physically, what did
you do? QUESTION:
Did anyone refuse to leave these regions? QUESTION: How quick was this enacted after the September
11 disaster? QUESTION: What did fishermen say about the tailraces
getting shut down? QUESTION:
So where did the Lake Watch Program start? QUESTION: And cars could drive across Wheeler Dam even
during the September 11th alert? QUESTION: And so the fishermen asked, "If you are going
to permit traffic to go across the dams, then why can't we fish the tailrace?"
How did y'all respond? To learn more about the Lake Watch Program, call (800) 839-0003, or write TVA Police, P.O. Box 1010, SB 1K-M, Muscle Shoals, AL 35662. TOMORROW: THEY SAVED TAILRACE FISHING
