september thing is not true, they don't have a date, so they just made up one.
Brad (owner of DGMR) is having a big meeting with a lot of legislature of both Tenn and NC along with THP and NCHP and Tenn/NC emergency services. They are trying to work out a solution for NC to patrol and provide services to the Tennessee road while the rockslide is still being repaired.. |

Turns out, Sept was an arbitrary date published by the TVA because they had to have a date to publish.
They're actually awarding the contract for the removal Monday, so they’ll know then what the est. time actually is…but again…it’s a 3rd part contract, so there may be change orders or continuances. Or hell, they may finish in record time who knows. I doubt there are early completion rewards though..so no incentive to hurry.

It wasn't by TVA, we have nothing to do with that. It was posted on the TDOT twitter page...

Time frame right now is said to be August 1st. One contractor has said 30-45 days from beginning work and they can have it safe enough to open one lane through.

they are already paying highway patrol to guard the barricade 24/7, putting 2 tdot guys there with flags would be cheaper.
