§831v Legislation to Carry Out Purposes of Chapter; Recommendation by President

Summary

The President must, from time to time as the work under section 831u goes forward, send Congress any laws he thinks are needed to carry out the goals in that section. Those recommendations should aim at six things for the Tennessee River basin and nearby land: (1) maximum flood control; (2) maximum development of the river for navigation; (3) maximum electric power generation that fits with flood control and navigation; (4) proper use of marginal lands; (5) proper reforestation of lands that can be reforested; and (6) the economic and social well‑being of the people living in the basin.
