Dam will be 9300 ft long and 242 ft high, and will contain 90 million cu yd of earth; seven 24-ft diam power tunnels will supply water to 595,000-kw hydroelectric power plant; closure by rapid dumping of shale into 125 ft wide gap of embankment was calculated by electronic computer; steady dumping rate was 3100 cu yd per hr throughout operation; use of earthmoving equipment is described.
