• Abstract:
  The 2009 Boating Accident Statistical Report is compiled by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA), Boating Division. The data used in this report is retrieved from “reportable boating accident” reports submitted by TWRA officers who investigate boat accidents and report their findings on TWRA Boating Accident Report forms (BAR). This data is for accidents which occurred during the 2009 calendar year. To be considered a “reportable boating accident”, an accident must involve a death, missing person, an injury which requires or should have ; required treatment beyond first aid, or property damage of $2,000 or more. Tennessee requires operators involved in an accident to immediately notify TWRA and provide certain information to the investigating officer. TWRA officers are required by Agency policy to investigate accidents that meet the reporting criteria.
