A hearing on two bills (S. 693 and S. 695) devoted to designating portions of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park as wilderness areas brought testimony from 26 witnesses, including local officials and residents and representatives of recreational groups, agencies from the affected states, and federal agencies. The points at issue were a 44-year dispute over the federal government's failure to construct roads north of the flooded areas of Fontana Dam, which Senator Helms' S. 695 requires the government to resolve. Senator Sasser argued that his bill (S. 693) does more to protect the integrity of the park. The hearing record includes the texts of the two bills, the testimony of the witnesses, and two appendices with additional responses and material submitted for the record.
