To amend the Tennessee Valley Authority Act of 1933 to ensure that promoting recreation is treated as a primary purpose in the operation of dams and reservoirs under the possession and control of the Tennessee Valley Authority.

This bill would change how the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) manages its water levels by making recreation a top priority, alongside existing mandates for flood control and navigation. By elevating the status of recreation, the TVA would be required to consider lake levels and public access for boating, fishing, and tourism more consistently when operating its dams and reservoirs. For local residents and visitors, this change is intended to support more stable water levels during peak seasons, potentially benefiting local economies and property owners who rely on the Tennessee River system for outdoor activities.
