Show 6080 525 Bissell - X 4083 CROSS EXAMINATION By Mr. Farnsworth: A And the purpose of these dam sites and reservoir sites in general, concerning which you have been interrogated, is similar to the purpose of Boulder Dam? A Yes, sir. Q As expressed by Congress in the proposed Boulder dam Act? A Yes, sir. They were investigated by this bureau prior to the determination of the feasibility of Boulder Dam Canyon, and since its feasibility has been recommended, we have done no further work on it. Mr. Farnsworth. That is all. By The Special Master: Q I would like to ask a question which I am entirely ignorant on. If the Boulder Dam project was successful, does its success interfere with any possible success of these other project farther up the river -- I mean, from a scientific standpoint, and not from a commercial standpoint? In other words, would the building of the Boulder Dam render impossible the building of any of these other projects, if in the future it should become desirable to build them? |
