Description:

Some people eat turtles from Watts Bar Reservoir. The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation believes that sites with PCBs in fish are likely to have PCBs in turtles, shellfish, and mussels. Until more information is available, people should avoid eating turtles, turtle eggs, and shellfish at Watts Bar Reservoir.
