U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District officials witnessed a hydropower turbine model test at Voith Hydro’s S. Morgan Smith Memorial Laboratory Oct. 6-9, 2014 in York, Pa.  The tests measured the performance of the turbine to ensure it meets the required specifications before the manufacturing process and work to modernize the power house at Center Hill Dam in Lancaster, Tenn., begins.  The tests were completely successful and the positive results will keep the Center Hill Hydropower Rehabilitation Project schedule on track. (USACE Video by Lee Roberts)
