Nottely Dam
Nottely Dam is a hydroelectric and flood storage dam on the Nottely River in Union County, in the U.S. state of Georgia. The dam is owned and operated by the Tennessee Valley Authority, which built the dam in the early 1940s as a flood control structure and to help regulate flow at nearby Hiwassee Dam.〔Tennessee Valley Authority, ''The Hiwassee Valley Projects Volume 2: The Apalachia, Ocoee No. 3, Nottely, and Chatuge Projects'', Technical Report No. 5 (Washington, D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office, 1948), pp. 1-8, 15-19, 50-53, 210, 495.〕 The dam impounds the Lake Nottely of .〔Tennessee Valley Authority, ''The Nickajack Project: A Report on the Planning, Design, Construction, Initial Operations, and Costs'', Technical Report No. 16 (Knoxville, Tenn.: Tennessee Valley Authority, 1972), pp. 10-11.〕 While the dam was built primarily for flood storage, a generator was installed at Nottely in the 1950s, giving it a small hydroelectric output.〔Tennessee Valley Authority, (Nottely Reservoir ). Retrieved: 27 January 2009.〕
Nottely Dam was named for the Nottely River.〔 The river itself was named after the Cherokee village of Naduhli, which was once situated along its banks. The village name is derived from Native American word for "daring horseman."〔Elizabeth Cooksey, "(Union County )." ''New Georgia Encyclopedia'', 2008. Retrieved: 27 January 2009.〕
==Location==
The Nottely River, which rises near the Union-Lumpkin county line, flows northward across Union County before crossing into North Carolina en route to its mouth along the Hiwassee River. Nottely Dam is located upstream from the Nottely's mouth, just south of the Georgia-North Carolina state line. Nottely Lake stretches southward for along the Nottely to Blairsville, Georgia. Both the dam and reservoir are surrounded by the Chattahoochee National Forest.
