The Watersheds Program - Old Hickory Watershed Association
Mission Statement: The mission of the Old Hickory Watershed Association is to protect and improve our watershed through outreach and stewardship.
Description: The Old Hickory Lake watershed contains all of Trousdale County and parts of Davidson, Macon, Smith, Sumner and Wilson Counties and drains 983 square miles. The watershed contains Old Hickory Reservoir, completed in 1957 and maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The reservoir provides a source of hydropower and water, as well as flood control. A single lock helps to maintain constant navigation through the Cumberland River. Proximity to several metropolitan areas contributes to Old Hickory Lake's popularity as a recreation area.

Know what the major Cumberland River pollutant is? Well, it is the DIRT and
the other "stuff" from our yards, our roofs and our driveways that runs off
every time we have a good rain.
If we all kept our dirt in our own yards, the river would be a lot healthier
and safer for everyone.
Visit the Sediment page to learn more about Muddy Waters and what YOU can do
to keep your dirt at home.
