Knowles Dam Could Flood Two Indian Power Sites
Engineers told the House Flood Control Subcommittee that building the Knowles Dam would submerge two Flathead Indian Reservation power sites valued at about 116.5 million dollars. Ivan Bloch said the Buffalo Rapids No 2 and 4 sites could generate roughly 4.65 million dollars annually, potentially supporting an aluminum plant or a pulp mill and up to 1,000 new jobs in Montana. He noted no firm had been approached to buy power, pending the Knowles project decision.
