Power plant to produce 1.3 million kw power needing unlimited cooling water is being built on 28 acre artificial island in Ijssel Lake originally framed by diking in 1932; site was dredged of silt and mud to 33 ft deep hard sand base; after filling to 5 ft below surface, 8-ft high stone quay was built on island's perimeter, also sloping bank inside quay, from 6 ft below to 10 ft above water level, to prevent scouring; plant will rest on two thousand 46 ft long concrete piles driven through fill into solid sand base; 427 ft long and 47 ft wide reinforced concrete bridge links island to reclaimed mainland of Flevoland; plant cooling and design details and plans for future expansion.
