	TVA: Navigation on the Tennessee River
		Until TVA went to work in 1933, navigation on the Tennessee River was severely hampered by shoals, rapids, and the periodic effects of droughts and flooding.
		The Tennessee River Waterway Management Plan (TRWMP) was developed to facilitate the safe and orderly movement of barge traffic during navigational emergencies on the Tennessee River system.
		It provides background information on the hydrological and meteorological factors that affect the Tennessee River system, as well as communication guidelines, points of contact, and criteria associated with each phase of emergency response.
