Item 7.01  Regulation
FD Disclosure
On August 20, 2008, Kimberly S. Greene,
TVA's Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President, Financial Services,
gave a presentation regarding TVA's fiscal year 2009 budget at a public meeting
of the TVA Board of Directors.  A copy of the materials used by Ms.
Greene during her presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
The furnished materials contain
forward-looking statements relating to future events and future
performance.  All statements other than those that are purely
historical may be forward-looking statements.  In certain cases,
forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "may,"
"will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "intend," "project,"
"plan," "predict," "assume," "forecast," "estimate," "objective," "possible,"
"probably," "likely," "potential," or other similar expressions.
Although TVA believes that the
assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, TVA does
not guarantee the accuracy of these statements.  Numerous factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements.   These factors include, among other
things:
•
New
      laws, regulations, and administrative orders, especially those related
      to:
–
TVA's
      protected service area,
–
The
      sole authority of the TVA Board of Directors to set power
      rates,
–
Various
      environmental and nuclear matters, including laws, regulations, and
      administrative orders restricting carbon emissions and preferring certain
      fuels over others,
–
TVA's
      management of the Tennessee River
system,
–
TVA's
      credit rating, and
–
TVA's
      debt ceiling;
•
Loss
      of customers;
•
Performance
      of TVA's generation and transmission
assets;
•
Availability
      of fuel supplies;
•
Purchased
      power price volatility;
•
Events
      at facilities not owned by TVA that affect the supply of water to TVA's
      generation facilities;
•
Compliance
      with existing environmental laws and
  regulations;
•
Significant
      delays or cost overruns in construction of generation and transmission
      assets;
•
Significant
      changes in demand for electricity;
•
Legal
      and administrative proceedings, including awards of damages and amounts
      paid in settlements;
•
Weather
      conditions, including drought;
•
Failure
      of transmission facilities;
•
Events
      at any nuclear facility, even one that is not operated by or licensed to
      TVA;
•
Catastrophic
      events such as fires, earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, pandemics, wars,
      terrorist activities, and other similar events, especially if these events
      occur in or near TVA's service
area;
•
Reliability
      of purchased power providers, fuel suppliers, and other
      counterparties;
•
Changes
      in the market price of commodities such as coal, uranium, natural gas,
      fuel oil, electricity, and emission
allowances;
•
Changes
      in the prices of equity securities, debt securities, and other
      investments;
•
Changes
      in interest rates;
•
Creditworthiness
      of TVA, its counterparties, or its
customers;
•
Rising
      pension costs and health care
expenses;
•
Increases
      in TVA's financial liability for decommissioning its nuclear facilities
      and retiring other assets;
•
Limitations
      on TVA's ability to borrow money;
•
Changes
      in the economy;
•
Ineffectiveness
      of TVA's disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over
      financial reporting;
•
Changes
      in accounting standards;
•
The
      loss of TVA's ability to use regulatory
  accounting;
•
Problems
      attracting and retaining skilled
workers;
•
Changes
      in technology;
•
Changes
      in TVA's plans for allocating its financial resources among
      projects;
•
Differences
      between estimates of revenues and expenses and actual revenues and
      expenses incurred;
•
Changes
      in the market for TVA securities;
and
•
Unforeseeable
      events.
Additionally, other risks that may
cause actual results to differ from the predicted results are set forth in TVA's
Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended September 30,
2007, and in other filings that TVA makes from time to time with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.  New factors emerge from time to time, and it
is not possible for management to predict all such factors or to assess the
extent to which any factor or combination of factors may impact TVA's business
or cause results to differ materially from those contained in any
forward-looking statement.
TVA undertakes no obligation to update
any forward-looking statement to reflect developments that occur after the
statement is made.
