[Oligobird@xxxxxxx]

During our last Christmas Count, our group was investigated (very politely) 
by TVA police, just as we finished our work. After a little research, we find 
that we can enter the area legally by calling Dennis Spencer, the Plant 
Manager, or his assistant, Kriste Lanius, at 615-230-4091. The site is within 
our 
Christmas Count circle and is a fairly good site for ducks, gulls, waterfowl 
and 
waders, one of the few remaining useful spots in our increasingly urban 
surroundings. We have also obtained a contact point for access to the Boxwell 
Scout 
Reserve and can assist anyone wanting to access that area given plenty of 
advance notice. Walking about on black coal berms provides an unusual color 
experience while birding. Ralph Brinkhurst, Lebanon, Wilson Co...
