Emory River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Emory River near Oakdale, Tennessee in Morgan County, Tennessee |
 | | In an unusual violation of the generally-accepted convention that the larger stream name is retained downstream of the confluence with a notably smaller one, the stream from this point retains the name "Emory River" even though the Obed at the point of confluence is almost always larger, generally considerably larger. |
 | | The mouth of the Emory is into the Clinch River at the Tennessee Valley Authority's Kingston Steam Plant, a coal-fired electric generation station initially developed during World War II, largely to power the uranium enrichment plant used to make the world's first atomic bomb at nearby Oak Ridge. |
