You can read some preparatory information on the TVA website that will give you some good information on what to expect and preparedness and even has a virtual lock through available online to help you get a feel for the locking process, you can make a virtual lock-through at the Fort Loudoun lock in Lenoir City, Tenn. The virtual lock through uses a 360 degree camera and
