² Acreage is different for No Action and Action alternatives because 2.3 acres were transferred to Parcel 159 after significant wetlands were identified. | LOUDON, MEIGS, RHEA, AND ROANE COUNTIES, TENNESSEE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT The subject environmental impact statement (EIS) stated that at least six parcels on Watts Bar Reservoir were affected by the December 2008 Kingston ash spill. Impacts to environmental resources and private and public property were being assessed at the time the final EIS was published. The area of these six parcels (Parcels 184, 187, 188, 189, 12-45, and 12-51) totaled about 134 acres above mean summer pool elevation. The continued appropriateness of the current allocation of these affected parcels would be reevaluated through the recovery planning process. | ||
Since the release of the final EIS, Parcel 189a was determined to include several islands (totaling 8 acres) located upstream of the spill site on the Emory River. This location was not impacted by the spill; therefore, these islands should not have been part of the affected area. | |||
Furthermore, there are three additional parcels (Parcels 185, 186, and 153) totaling 58.4 acres that were affected by the Kingston ash spill. The total revised area of the parcels impacted by the spill is 184 acres (see Table 1 below). The locations of these parcels are shown in Figure 1 below. | |||

On November 19, 2009, the TVA Board of Directors approved the 2009 WBRLMP, which excluded all or parts of the nine parcels mentioned above that were affected by the December 2008 Kingston ash spill. The appropriate future uses of these parcels will be determined during the recovery planning process. Because of these changes, the total acreage considered in the WBRLMP is not 16,220 acres, as reported in the EIS, but rather, 16,036 acres. This change slightly reduces the amount of land available for planning (about 1 percent), but it does not affect the planning process for the vast majority of public lands around Watts Bar Reservoir. | |||

Replacement Paragraph 1 All or parts of at least nine parcels (other than KIF) proposed for consideration in the Land Plan action alternatives were impacted directly by the spill. The area of these parcels total about 184.0 acres above mean summer pool elevation. Parcels186 and 188, which total 39.0 acres, were proposed for allocation to Zone 3 (Sensitive Resource Management) because of the presence of wetlands. Parcels 185, 187, and 189a, totaling 83.1 acres, were proposed for Zone 4 (Natural Resource Conservation). The 69.2 acres of Parcels 153 and 184 were proposed for Zone 7 (Shoreline Access). Parcels 12-45 and 12-51 (about 2.8 acres) are currently licensed to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) for boat access ramps and are proposed for Zone 6 (Developed Recreation). In addition, the approximately 84-acre containment pond, which includes 60 acres from which the ash slide occurred, is part of the KIF site (Parcel 190), | |||
which is proposed to be allocated to Zone 2 (Project Operations). | |||
Please replace the third paragraph on page 5 with the paragraph below. | |||
Replacement Paragraph 2 In January 2009, TVA began developing a recovery plan that would address remediation of the area affected by the ash spill, including any areas within the above parcels that have been impacted. The appropriate future uses of these nine parcels will be determined during the recovery planning process. Since the vast majority of land parcels on Watts Bar Reservoir are unaffected by the spill, TVA has decided to exclude these parcels from the WBRLMP and to move ahead with the land planning process for this reservoir. Any future TVA actions to reallocate any of these parcels will be subject to environmental reviews under NEPA. | |||

LOUDON, MEIGS, RHEA, AND ROANE COUNTIES, TENNESSEE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT The subject environmental impact statement (EIS) stated that at least six parcels on Watts Bar Reservoir were affected by the December 2008 Kingston ash spill. Impacts to environmental resources and private and public property were being assessed at the time the final EIS was published. The area of these six parcels (Parcels 184, 187, 188, 189, 12-45, and 12-51) totaled about 134 acres above mean summer pool elevation. The continued appropriateness of the current allocation of these affected parcels would be reevaluated through the recovery planning process.
Since the release of the final EIS, Parcel 189a was determined to include several islands (totaling 8 acres) located upstream of the spill site on the Emory River. This location was not impacted by the spill; therefore, these islands should not have been part of the affected area.
Furthermore, there are three additional parcels (Parcels 185, 186, and 153) totaling 58.4 acres that were affected by the Kingston ash spill. The total revised area of the parcels impacted by the spill is 184 acres (see Table 1 below). The locations of these parcels are shown in Figure 1 below.

Parcels Affected by the Kingston Ash Spill Modified Alternatives Affected A B C Parcel Acreage Zone Acres Zone Acres Zone Acres 12-45 1.6 6 1.6 6 1.6 6 1.6 12-51 1.2 6 1.2 6 1.2 6 1.2 153 40.6 7 40.6 7 40.6 7 40.6 184 28.8 7 28.8 7 28.8 7 28.8 185 4.1 4 4.1 4 4.1 4 4.1 186 13.7 3 13.7 3 13.7 3 13.7 187 56.8 4 56.8 4 56.8 4 56.8 188 25.3 3 25.3 3 25.3 3 25.3 189a 11.9¹ 4 22.2² 4 19.9 4 19.9 Total 184.0 1
Only 11.9 acres of the original Parcel 189 were affected. The remaining acreage is associated with upstream islands, and these will remain as planned under Parcel 189. The affected parcel will be referred to as 189a for future planning.
² Acreage is different for No Action and Action alternatives because 2.3 acres were transferred to Parcel 159 after significant wetlands were identified.

On November 19, 2009, the TVA Board of Directors approved the 2009 WBRLMP, which excluded all or parts of the nine parcels mentioned above that were affected by the December 2008 Kingston ash spill. The appropriate future uses of these parcels will be determined during the recovery planning process. Because of these changes, the total acreage considered in the WBRLMP is not 16,220 acres, as reported in the EIS, but rather, 16,036 acres. This change slightly reduces the amount of land available for planning (about 1 percent), but it does not affect the planning process for the vast majority of public lands around Watts Bar Reservoir.
After the release of the final EIS, the TVA Board of Directors clarified its authority regarding future requests for allocation changes of certain shoreline parcels from Zone 5 or 6 to Zone 7.
The Board will reserve the right to review and approve such changes. Because the exercise of this allocation authority is an administrative action, it would have no effect on the physical environment, the planning process, or the stated goals of the WBRLMP.
Most of the changes necessary to accommodate the 184-acre reduction occur in various tables throughout the document; however, some changes in the document text are necessary. An updated map of the Kingston Fossil Plant area (i.e., Figure 1 in this document) is provided.
Table 2 lists the locations in the document where updates are necessary.

Replacement Paragraph 1 All or parts of at least nine parcels (other than KIF) proposed for consideration in the Land Plan action alternatives were impacted directly by the spill. The area of these parcels total about 184.0 acres above mean summer pool elevation. Parcels186 and 188, which total 39.0 acres, were proposed for allocation to Zone 3 (Sensitive Resource Management) because of the presence of wetlands. Parcels 185, 187, and 189a, totaling 83.1 acres, were proposed for Zone 4 (Natural Resource Conservation). The 69.2 acres of Parcels 153 and 184 were proposed for Zone 7 (Shoreline Access). Parcels 12-45 and 12-51 (about 2.8 acres) are currently licensed to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) for boat access ramps and are proposed for Zone 6 (Developed Recreation). In addition, the approximately 84-acre containment pond, which includes 60 acres from which the ash slide occurred, is part of the KIF site (Parcel 190),
which is proposed to be allocated to Zone 2 (Project Operations).
Please replace the third paragraph on page 5 with the paragraph below.
Replacement Paragraph 2 In January 2009, TVA began developing a recovery plan that would address remediation of the area affected by the ash spill, including any areas within the above parcels that have been impacted. The appropriate future uses of these nine parcels will be determined during the recovery planning process. Since the vast majority of land parcels on Watts Bar Reservoir are unaffected by the spill, TVA has decided to exclude these parcels from the WBRLMP and to move ahead with the land planning process for this reservoir. Any future TVA actions to reallocate any of these parcels will be subject to environmental reviews under NEPA.
