Snowy Mountains scheme shows vast international teamwork
The Snowy Mountains hydro electric and irrigation project unites engineers from many nations. Norwegians, Dutch, Belgians, Italians contribute housing and materials while US Bureau of Reclamation designs parts of the Upper Tumut development. NSW authorities build the Adaminaby Dam, a 3 million cubic foot water holder, as Australians highlight pioneering effort over three years. The plan diverts Snowy waters via tunnels to Murray and Murrumbidgee for irrigation and power, aiming for 630,000 kilowatts by 1959-60 and ultimately 3,000,000 kilowatts, with coal savings and substantial irrigation outputs.
