Clean and Clear
Norris Lake is widely considered one of the cleanest lakes managed by the TVA. While a number of factors contribute to the color and clarity of lake waters, experts believe that the area's limestone-rich terrain is to thank. The high limestone content in the rocks surrounding Norris Lake helps filter sediment and algae and contributes to the water's green hue.
