First, the stalled lock project at Chickamauga Dam could be making a comeback.

The U.S. Senate will vote next week on a measure that could restart work on the new lock.
Work stopped two years ago when money from the 2009 stimulus package ran out.
Now Lamar Alexander says work on the project could be revived in two to four years.
The new lock, which was started nearly a decade ago and is now nearly half complete, is projected to cost more than $600 million dollars.
