Water and Power Needs of West Going Unfilled
Reclamation Commissioner Michael W. Straus warned at the regional directors meeting that 1947 appropriations may total 350 million dollars as demand for water and power in the West outpaces supply. He cited rising funds from 161 million in 1946 to 300 million in the current year and hinted at authorization for Bridge Canyon dam near Lake Mead. Assistant Commissioner Wesley R. Nelson traced the bureau’s growth from 100 projects in 1940 to 141 under investigation, 44 under construction, and 54 operating, noting a shift from single to multi basin projects and suggesting future plans may link the Columbia basin to southern California.
