A long Nebraskan style report outlines Australia’s plan to develop hydroelectric power on the Murray River. The project would use a large dam at Burrinuck with a 950 hp engine, linking Sydney to Melbourne and supplying power to Victoria and New South Wales. The effort aims to boost irrigation, attract industry, and provide regional benefits across southern Australia as snowclad mountains and scenic valleys frame the proposal.
