Construction Progress at South Saskatchewan River Dam
The South Saskatchewan River Dam project advances with 25 contracts awarded totaling about 49.6 million dollars and 25 percent of construction expenditures. The main embankment rises toward a three mile span, plus a second dam in the Qu Appelle Valley, five diversion tunnels, and a 3800 foot spillway with 265 000 cubic feet per second capacity. About 1000 workers are employed on the main dam with 60 000 visitors to the site this season including dignitaries from Canada and overseas.
