town planning.
Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA)
One of the most important
events in Tennessee since the Civil War was the establishment of the Tennessee
Valley Authority (TVA) in May 1933.
TVA’s got a Web site just for kids! Learn about how TVA makes
electricity, reduces flood damage, protects wildlife, and lots more. There’s a
section for teachers, too.
The construction of TVA projects involved the
removal of thousands of graves.
