Douglas Dam
The Tennessee Valley Authority constructed Douglas Dam as part of a massive project to harness the power produced by the Tennessee River system. The United States Congress created the TVA, as the Authority is known, in 1933. Today, the TVA directs operations of more than 50 dams in parts of Alabama, Virginia, Kentucky, Georgia, North Carolina, Mississippi, and Tennessee.
