TVA TEMPORARILY CLOSES KINGSTON FOSSIL PLANT BOAT RAMP & PARKING
HARRIMAN, Tenn. — TVA is temporarily closing the boat ramp, fishing, and parking areas at its Kingston Fossil Plant to install a new water line from Swan Pond Road. The areas will be inaccessible starting Monday, Nov. 4, through February 2025.
During the closure, boaters can use the Kingston Boat Ramp (333 W. Race Street, Kingston, TN) or the Caney Creek Boat Ramp (2515 Roane State Hwy, Harriman, TN). Alternative TVA recreation sites, including an interactive recreation map, can be accessed at tva.com/environment/recreation
The new water line will serve Kingston Energy Complex, which is being constructed to maintain reliable and resilient power to customers as TVA reduces its reliance on coal and lowers its carbon footprint. The complex’s new generating units will add approximately 1,500 megawatts to the grid, replacing coal-fired units on site that are scheduled for retirement at the end of 2027.
