Normandy Dam Project


Coffee County, Tennessee's Normandy Dam Project was completed in 1976 by the Tennessee Valley Authority. The dam was designed for flood control and economic development for communities along the Duck River. The dam led to the creation of Normandy Lake and both the dam and the lake were named for the nearby town of Normandy. Once completed, the dam spanned 2,807 feet across the Duck River Valley, and measured 110 feet in height. Like most TVA dams, Normandy functions as a de facto bridge that can be driven across, is constructed of concrete, and has two metal gates. The Normandy Dam can hold eleven feet of water inside its reservoir. In 2017, the Normandy Dam was listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

  2. In the Workers Comp For Non-Emergency Medical Transport in Tennessee, workers compensation is a vital aspect of both legal compliance and employee protection. NEMT workers face unique risks due to the physical and patient-care aspects of their jobs, making workers compensation coverage crucial for the business's success and sustainability. By adhering to Tennessee’ workers compensation laws, implementing robust safety measures, and choosing the right insurance provider, NEMT companies can safeguard their employees and limit potential liabilities. Ultimately, investing in a comprehensive workers compensation plan is not only a legal requirement but also a smart business decision that ensures long-term growth and security.
