Upon application to and approval by TVA, utility lines (electric, water-intake lines, etc.) may be placed within the flowage easement area as follows:
(a) Power lines, poles, electrical panels, and wiring shall be installed:
- (1) In a way that would not be hazardous to the public or interfere with TVA operations; and
- (2) In compliance with all State and local electrical codes (satisfactory evidence of compliance to be provided to TVA upon request).
- (b) Electrical service shall be installed with an electrical disconnect that is located above the 500-year floodplain or the flood risk profile, whichever is higher, and is accessible during flood events.
- (c) TVA's issuance of a permit does not mean that TVA has determined the facilities are safe for any purpose or that TVA has any duty to make such a determination.
