Value of Pymatuning Dam Proves Its Worth in Flood Fight
Skeptics who doubted the Pymatuning Dam’s cost now face data from N. L. Lichtengwalner of the National Emergency Council for Pennsylvania. Total state flood damage reached 212,585,010 but Lawrence County reported only 1,250 mostly to low highways. New Castle bulletins note that without the dam water levels in the city might have surpassed 1913 losses, with Shenango and other districts also spared. The report argues the dam’s benefits vastly exceed its cost and saved lives.
