The TVA is slow, archaic. They dont build things just to build them. Severely under funded, and unable to control their own books.
Sound familiar?
That said, when they do something. They do it. Look at story if history of Wilbur Dam, look at South Holston, and Douglas Dams.
Perfect example is Boone Dam, researching how they reaolved that issue. Knew it was a problem for decades. They literally took 7-8 years to study, engineering a new method to fix, implement, test, and finally stage the reservoir back up.
Fascinating. Also, over engineered for obvious reasons.
I am thankful we have them. Certainly beats alternative, Duke Energy or privately run Dams. Or mother nature.
Donāt remember having a previous issue with VolGeorge, but I donāt keep a diary on my interactions on hereā¦wouldnāt change my methodology one iota if I did. I highly encourage the use of the ignore feature to tailor oneās VN experience. Iām on some of posters I like and respect and have at least a couple who I thought I liked but noticed a like or comment that trashed me. Why put up with people you donāt trust or get a positive experience from? I hope never to naturally go too far with posters like you and InVolā¦but no promises.
