Paper describes conveyor and processing system used to construct Portage Mountain Dam in British Columbia, Canada; fully mechanized materials handling and conveying system uses special belting that makes it possible to use unorthodoxtroughing angles and exceptionally high belt speeds; working area in South Moraine is approximately 7000 ft long, varying from 800 to 2600 ft in width; plant feed conveyor is single-flight belt transporting material 15, 000 ft from base of moraine to processing plant.
