Alerts and Important Information

The Corps of Engineers, Nashville District has an approved plan to address serious seepage at Center Hill Dam. Construction of the long-term fix will begin in spring 2008 to address the most critical areas which are the main dam embankment and the left rim. This year’s construction will consist of constructing work surfaces along the main dam embankment and left rim, including excavation similar to a road cut through the hill just west of the dam, and drilling and pumping grout into the foundation to fill voids. Campers at Long Branch can expect to see and hear heavy equipment and experience heavier than normal traffic in the vicinity of the dam.
