That's interesting. When is that regatta thing? My boss will not be able to get his battleship through the lock and down to the aquarium where he likes to entertain folks on his big boat.

Heard it's a 500 to 700 million dollar repair while I was coming into work this morning. ChaChing!

Just thought...the vol Navy! What will they do!

There are several Bama fans with boats stranded above the lock. TVA has now issued a consumption restriction on Chickamauga due to contamination.

Looks like locking up to Chick. for the Heartland is out. And locking down for the Mon. night Classic on 09-09-14 is a no go too.

I might be wrong but I think he was telling us the Alabama fans were contaminating the river...

See. EricM you got too close to them. It's extremely contagious! Sing Rocky Top for 24 hours straight to cure any symptoms of Bammeritis!

TVA is working with the Corps to get stranded traffic through, including a 200 ton stator for Kingston coal plant coming from Shawnee. If they don't let it through, the stator will have to be unloaded at Chattanooga and trucked or railed from there. Should know by tomorrow afternoon if stranded traffic will be able to pass through the lock.
