This is totally untrue. The Holston is very clean, Eastman makes sure of it. Check the TVA web site for conditions of all lakes and water ways in TN/VA. Watagua Lake in Carter Co is one of the cleanest lakes in the country, let alone state.

Ive heard of numerous lawsuits in east TN, but here in west TN the lakes and rivers are pretty clean (Largely due to the fact we dont have that many lakes!) Pickwick, Reelfoot, and Kentucky Lakes are our main lakes- no problems. Your only problem usually is the Mississippi River- its supposed to be more polluted than the Pacific Ocean! You probably wouldnt have to worry about that- there is very little public access to the river in TN and they dont advise swimming because of the current (Not to say we dont do it- we still do) Beware of its fish, however.

TVA provides very comprehensive ecological ratings of the lakes and rivers under it's control.
