Planning and construction of chute-des passes hydroelectric power project
Project utilizes existing Passes Dangereuse dam and reservoir; 31,000 ft long 35 ft diam concrete lined supply tunnel carries water from intake structure in reservoir to manifold of 5 steel lined penstocks; surge tank has 130 ft diam and is 250 ft deep; deep underground powerhouse is 473 by 65 ft, 105 ft high; it will house five vertical Francis turbine generators of 200,000 hp each at 590 ft water head; efficiency curves.
