Just to keep everyone in the loop about what's going on at Tellico, the Southern Environmental Law Center (on behalf of the North Carolina Council of Trout Unlimited, the Tennessee Council of Trout Unlimited, Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, and the Southern Appalachian Biodiversity Project) has filed a 60 day notice to bring suit under Section 515 of the Clean Water Act. The USFS has 60 days to respond or they will "take action to remedy the violations."

I encourage everyone to read up on what's going on at Tellico. Please do not post inflammatory responses on any public webpages, as it will only serve to feed negative perceptions of our sport.
I will continue to be involved with SFWDA as this progresses and will update this thread as we proceed.
