Plan to Channel Colorado River to Save Imperial Valley
A proposed engineering scheme to lower the Colorado River through gates near the break at Oroapléa Stones and Lang Overheand, New York, aims to divert flow off its current channel. Captain Mbert F.

If implemented, the gates would allow waste and trains to be moved more safely, with an estimated cost not exceeding 500,000 dollars.
