Water Management Situation Report for Cumberland River Basin Reservoir System and Associated Waterways
Old Hickory
Releases through the spillway to help DO, along with limited generation from the turbines to provide sufficient depths for the movement of commercial navigation, continued at Old Hickory until mid-December. The lower end of the lake actually destratified by the end of October, mixing nutrients and oxygen. After this point, even though spillway releases were no longer needed for oxygenation, the Corps continued releases to provide a more consistent base flow in the Cumberland River downstream.

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.
