RE: thanks for the Watts Bar Reservoir creel survey report Date: Wednesday, September 06, 2017 2:15:19 PM Attachments: Count_WB_4_2016.xlsx Inter_WB_4_2016.xlsx Harv_WB_4_2017.xlsx SurveyCodes_TWRA.pdf Hey Jim, I queried the three tables that make up our creel database to only include data taken from area 4 on Watts Bar from 2016. I also included a list of survey codes used to help you make sense of it.

Below is a description of the area from the Region 3 Reservoir Manager, Mike Jolley.

Pat, The creel area on Watts Bar that you were inquiring about is area #4. This incorporates the area that Mr. Beckor referenced. The lower boundary is the Kingston Steam Plant (Clinch River) and the upper boundary is Melton Hill Dam also located on the Clinch River. This area

1. 4 also includes the Emory River from its mouth up to the city of Harriman. The Emory River empties into the Clinch River a mile or so above the Kingston Steam Plant. I hope this helps!

RE: thanks for the Watts Bar Reservoir creel survey report Hey Jim, I can give you the raw data. Ive contacted our region 3 reservoir manager to get the zone delineations for Watts Bar. He said the zone will encompass a larger area than just the Clinch river portion. This will be the smallest scale available. We dont record location on individual interviews.

Once I get the delineations and zone number that contains the area you are interested in, I can query our statewide database and send you the Watts Bar data. We are moving offices today so It will be next week before I will be able to finish this.

RE: thanks for the Watts Bar Reservoir creel survey report Or would we be able to identify and break out 2) the surveys from Melton Hill dam down to where interstate 40 crosses the Clinch River (just below the confluence with the Emory River)?

Or if that wont work, could you send us the data for 3) Roane County (its a longer stretch of river but at least its not all of Watts Bar Reservoir)?

RE: thanks for the Watts Bar Reservoir creel survey report Hi Pat, Thanks again for the report. You mentioned that the analysis in the report pertaining to Watts Bar

Reservoir is reservoir-wide and cannot be broken down to parse out the evaluation for from Melton Hill dam down to the confluence of the Emory River. Can you give us the raw creel data for Watts Bar Reservoir? If you can, would we be able to identify and break out, in order of preference, 1) the surveys from Melton Hill dam down to the confluence of the Emory River?

Thank you, Jim From: Pat Black [6]
