Likely you can get a permit .... but, they're going to want the GPS coords, and then they have the right to include those coords on their maps.
The biggest problem I can see with dropping brush at Cumberland is the water level drop of around 40ft, from Summer Pool to Winter Pool. You drop them for Summer Pool fishing & they'll be exposed by Fall .... drop them for Winter Pool fishing and they'll be too deep by Spring.

Pappy he specifically said he didnt want gps wayppoints & i was talking to the main individual to grant them. I'm also thinking about dropping them for winter & a few for summer. Mainly winter though becausde it's easier to find them in summer until around september or so when the natural cover comes out of the water.

OK ... then I'd go by what he said. I was just going by the "history" of the subject matter. I think one reason they didn't want people dropping brush/pvc was because they didn't want people dropping them in navigation lanes or spots that people generally use for swimming or skiing purposes ... so they wouldn't become a hazard.

Oh no doubt.

Several years ago i put some stuff out in cumberland. I had to get a permit and record all waypoints and give back to them. The permit was good for about 2 months i think.depending on which end of lake you are going to put stuff you had to go to somersdt office or the office at wolf creek dam

As stated earlier. The lake goes up and down up to 50 ft so it was difficult to put them in depths you want because of a limited time you could fish them where they were not either out of water or real deep
