Vehicles

AGENCY: Tennessee Valley Authority.

ACTION:  Final rule; removal.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) hereby removes obsolete 
rules regulating the use of motorized vehicles over the Land Between 
The Lakes. Under the Land Between The Lakes Protection Act of 1998, 
administrative jurisdiction transferred from TVA to the United States 
Department of Agriculture--Forest Service (USDA-FS) on October 1, 1999. 
The USDA-FS currently is in charge of operation, maintenance, and 
development of this area. Accordingly, this rule would rescind the 
regulations effective upon publication in the Federal Register.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 10, 2003.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rebecca Chunn Tolene, Office of the 
General Counsel, Tennessee Valley Authority, 865-632-3045.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Land Between The Lakes (``LBL'') is a 
national recreation area located in western Kentucky and Tennessee 
established by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in 1964 and

regulating the use of motorized vehicles over LBL including designating 
the Turkey Bay Off-Road Vehicle Area as the only area to be authorized 
for use of off-road vehicles. Under the Land Between The Lakes 
Protection Act of 1998 (16 U.S.C. 460111-61), administrative 
jurisdiction transferred on October 1, 1999, from TVA to the USDA-FS.
