Updated 10/18/2014 at 4:30 pm est – Our ongoing environmental investigative reporting takes the reader to McWherter Park. Located in the City of Knoxville. Yesterday night we highlighted some of photos that appear to show the need for attention.  We have communicated the issues and the issues are in the  reviewing process at this time. I can confirm that the city will be cleaning the lights soon! More news as it develops.  If you see a situation that might need city services, please call 311.

Yes, we have sent in an email to TVA to find out why garbage bags full with trash are laying right in the middle of a park.
