Owen Sound for an afternoon surface tour of the project. They were singularly impressed with the vastness and complexity of the engineering features associated with the power undertaking. Constuction involves the boring of 5 112 mile long twin tunnels which will carry 15,000,- 000 gallons of water perminute under the city of Niagara Falls from a di- version point two .miles upstream from the famous Falls, The tunnels, being excavated at a maximum depth of 330 feet, will surface and empty into a 211 mile long open-cut canal which leads to the power house fore- bay. The plant is situated at the base of a 300-foot precipice on the lower Niagara River Gorge,. six miles down- stream from the Cataracts. Referring to the tremendous con- struction progress which is being made on the project to make first power available in 1954, it was reported that approximately a third of the total concrete required for the major phas- es of the development has already been poured. All rock has been re- moved from No. 1 tunnel and 67 per cent of the concrete lining completed. In No, 2 tunnel, 74 per cent of the rock has been cleared. Excavation or the 21i mile long canal is virtually- finished. At the powerhouse site, about 43 per cent of 'all the concrete has been poured. Steel work on the plant superstructure has been completed to the seventh unit and the first four steel penstocks have been installed, with work proceeding on the fifth and sixth. /r, R.
