Pacific Northwest Power seeks license for Mountain Sheep dam
Pacific Northwest Power Co filed Monday with the Federal Power Commission for a license to build the 670 foot high Mountain Sheep dam on the middle Snake River at the Idaho Oregon border. The scheme aims to create a 58 mile long reservoir, 1 520 000 kilowatts capacity, and about 2 700 000 acre feet storage, with an estimated cost of 245 million dollars and several thousand jobs during four years of construction. The plan notes no dams on Salmon river and emphasizes fish resources.
