Brazos River to Host Three New Power Dams in Texas
Brazos River Conservation and Reclamation District seeks to build Turkey Creek, Inspiration Point, and De Cordova Bend dams in Palo Pinto and Hood Counties. Each dam would supply Texas power only, with lakes ranging from 4 700 to 7 730 acres and generators from 21 256 to 43 478 kilovolt amperes. The district asks the Power Commission to declare the river non navigable under the Federal Power Act, removing interstate commerce jurisdiction.
