Description
Based on concerns expressed to the Office of the Inspector General, we initiated an inspection of TVA's easement with the Tishomingo County Development Foundation (TCDF). The objective of the review was to determine whether easement payments were made in accordance with the agreement. We found that while TCDF was not in compliance with amended easement payment provisions, the payment provisions were recently amended for the second time to provide the developer, Pickwick Pines Marina (PPM), an opportunity to develop and operate the marina. We also noted that the minimum investment provision of the easement has not been met. On August 6, 2008, TCDF sent PPM a notice of default.
