Roosevelt Dam Nears Completion In Arizona Power Plan
The Roosevelt dam near Phoenix Arizona nears completion and gains national attention. A June Technical World article by Rene Bache and engineer Ralph F Jenney details the dam site pictures the power house and transmission lines and notes soon electricity will lift irrigation in the Salt River valley to 10000 acres and pump water for the Pima and Maricopa reservations. The project will yield 25000 horsepower powering irrigation lighting and farm use with surplus for cities and farms while Minidoka in Idaho builds 30000 horsepower for towns and manufacturing. The dam stands 95 percent finished and will create a 1300000 acre foot reservoir feeding about 200000 acres of irrigation space.
