Recent severe weather in the vicinity of Chilhowee Reservoir in Blount and Monroe counties damaged transmission structures and lines within Chilhowee Reservoir.

Due to these storm-related damages, Alcoa Power Generating Inc. (APGI) has closed the following public access areas to Chilhowee Reservoir: Calderwood Village, Tab Cat, Gravel Pile, Happy Valley, Pear Tree, and the canoe portage put-in and take-out. Each of the access areas will be posted with an appropriate warning (i.e. no boating, swimming, and/or fishing) and boat ramps will be barricaded. These areas will remain closed while damages are fully assessed and repaired.
