Protect Tennessee Valley’s Wildlife: Keep It Clean

The Tennessee Valley is home to unique plants and animals found nowhere else. Keeping it clean helps protect them. TVA supports conservation, and you can too! Picking up litter keeps toxins and microplastics out of waterways, protects wildlife from harm, and helps native plants grow. Litter isn’t just ugly—it hurts the environment. Join a clean-up and make a difference for our home and the species that call it home!

During our cleanups volunteers will clean up the lakeshore near the launch points and on nearby islands.  You are also encouraged to bring a life jacket if you have one.
 
Bags will be provided by the Tennessee Valley Authority at all of the locations. Participants are encouraged to bring gloves and wear tennis shoes, boots, or other shoes with tread.  The lake banks will be muddy so please wear appropriate footwear. Each participant will receive a free T-shirt.

If you are conducting unauthorized cleanups, depositing debris on public or private boat ramps without prior approval, or trespassing on private property without the property owner’s permission to retrieve debris, you could be subject to fines and prosecution. If you would like to partner with the team to conduct a cleanup in your area, please email info@norrislakeproject.com or call 865-457-4547.659-2829.
