Freedom to Fish Act
The Freedom to Fish Act (Pub.L. 113–13; S. 982) is a law that creates a two-year moratorium on plans by the Chief of the Army Corps of Engineers to restrict access of the general public to the tailwaters along the Cumberland River, primarily located in Kentucky and Tennessee. The tailwater of a river is the area immediately following a structure like a dam where there is better fishing than elsewhere on the river. The Army Corps of Engineers announced that they would be restricting access to these areas in 2012 for reasons of safety.
