Central Valley irrigation plan spurs vast power and farm growth
The plan aims to irrigate 3,040,000 acres, create 3,000,000,000 kilowatt hours annually, and trigger an industrial boom along with increased Mexican labor demand. Shasta dam, 602 feet, key to the project, was advanced during World War II and sits opposite Hoover dam in height. The valley spans 500 by 50 miles across 18 counties with 83 cities and 1,500,000 residents, now producing about 640,000,000 yearly.
