State the answer to the question: What is the date of the station whose river is a 112-mile-long ( 180 km ) tributary ? Return your answer as JSON: {"answer": "YOUR ANSWER"}. Avoid adding external knowledge.

The watt ( symbol : W ) is a unit of power . In the International System of Units ( SI ) it is defined as a derived unit of 1 joule per second , and is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer . In SI base units , the watt is described as k g m 2 s − 3 { \displaystyle kg\ , m^ { 2 } s^ { -3 } } , which can be demonstrated to coherent by dimensional analysis . The watt is named after James Watt , an 18th century scottish inventor .
A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on Earth to be specified by a set of numbers , letters or symbols . [ note 1 ] The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represents a vertical position and two or three of the numbers represent a horizontal position ; alternatively , a geographic position may be expressed in a combined three-dimensional Cartesian vector . A common choice of coordinates is latitude , longitude and elevation . To specify a location on a plane requires a map projection .
The Beechwood Dam is a hydroelectric dam built on the Saint John River in the Canadian province of New Brunswick and operated by NB Power corporation . Its power house has a capacity of 113 megawatts . The dam and power house opened in 1955 in the community of Beechwood , The dam has a head of approximately 18 meters and its upstream reservoir has a relatively small capacity ; any significant rainfall or ice jams upstream require NB Power to open flood gates to permit flow through due to this small storage capability . The dam spans the river at Beechwood , NB . Beechwood dam is in Carleton county . NB parish of Kent . A fish elevator helps migratory fish circumvent the head of the dam . A giant working floral clock sits nearby in a small park .
NB Power ( French : Énergie NB ) , formerly known as the New Brunswick Power Corporation and the New Brunswick Electric Power Commission , is the primary electrical utility in the Canadian province of New Brunswick . NB Power is a vertically-integrated Crown Corporation wholly owned by the Government of New Brunswick and is responsible for the generation , transmission , and distribution of electricity . :3 NB Power serves all the residential and industrial power consumers in New Brunswick , with the exception of those in Saint John , Edmundston and Perth-Andover who are served by Saint John Energy , Energy Edmundston , and the Perth-Andover Electric Light Commission , respectively .
The Saint John River ( French : Fleuve Saint-Jean ) is a 673 kilometres ( 418 mi ) long river that flows from Northern Maine into Canada , and runs south along the western side of New Brunswick , emptying into the Atlantic Ocean in the Bay of Fundy . Eastern Canada 's longest river , its drainage basin is one of the largest on the east coast at about 55,000 square kilometres ( 21,000 sq mi ) . A tributary forms 55 km of the border between Quebec and Maine , and much of the border between New Brunswick and Maine follows the river . New Brunswick settlements through which it passes include , moving downstream , Edmundston , Fredericton , Oromocto , and Saint John . It is regulated by hydro-power dams at Mactaquac , Beechwood , and Grand Falls , New Brunswick .
The Grand Falls Generating Station is a hydroelectric dam built on the Saint John River in Grand Falls in the Canadian province of New Brunswick and is operated by NB Power corporation . It was built in 1931 and its power house has a capacity of 66 megawatts with its 4 turbines .
The Mactaquac Dam is an embankment dam used to generate hydroelectricity in Mactaquac , New Brunswick . It dams the waters of the Saint John River and is operated by NB Power with a capacity to generate 670 megawatts of electricity from 6 turbines ; this represents 20 percent of New Brunswick 's power demand .
Edmundston /ˈɛdməndstən/ is a city in Madawaska County , New Brunswick , Canada .
The Madawaska River flows from Lake Témiscouata in Quebec , through Degelis Quebec , to join the Saint John River at Edmundston , New Brunswick . The course of the Madawaska River is accessible in Quebec by route 185 and New Brunswick by Highway 2 , which run along the river side South West .
The Milltown Dam is a hydroelectric dam built on the St. Croix River between St. Stephen , New Brunswick , Canada and Calais , Maine , USA , and operated by NB Power . Its power house has a capacity of 4 megawatts with its 7 turbines . Built in 1881 and modernised in the early-1900s , it is the oldest hydroelectric dam in Canada , as well as the first hydroelectric facility built by NB Power . Electricity generated by the Milltown Dam is also exported to the United States , connected to a 69,000 volt transmission circuit owned by the Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative , an electric utility serving Calais .
The St. Croix River ( French : Fleuve Sainte-Croix ) is a river in northeastern North America , 71 miles ( 114 km ) in length , that forms part of the Canada-United States border between Maine ( U.S. ) and New Brunswick ( Canada ) . The river rises in the Chiputneticook Lakes and flows south and southeast , between Calais and St. Stephen . It discharges into Passamaquoddy Bay , in the Bay of Fundy .
The Nepisiguit ( Grand ) Falls generating station is a hydroelectric dam built in the Canadian province of New Brunswick and is operated by NB Power corporation . It was purchased by the NB Electric Power Commission in the early 1950s from the Bathurst Power and Paper Company .
The Nepisiguit River is a major river in northern New Brunswick , Canada , which enters the sea at the city of Bathurst , on the Bay of Chaleur .
The Sisson Dam is a hydroelectric dam built in the Canadian province of New Brunswick and is operated by NB Power corporation . Its power house has a capacity of 9 megawatts with its single turbine . It is located at the southeast corner of the Sisson Branch Reservoir , which it created , in Lorne Parish , Victoria County .
The Tobique River ( pro . Toe-Bick ) is a river in northwestern New Brunswick , Canada . The river rises from Nictau Lake in Mount Carleton Provincial Park and flows for 148 kilometres to its confluence with the Saint John River near Perth-Andover . The Tobique River Flows in a general southwesterly direction down through Victoria County , New Brunswick . The Tobique is formed just outside the small community of Nictau , New Brunswick . It is made through the conjoining of the two main tributaries known as the Little Tobique River and the Campbell River . After the river forms in Nictau , it travels down through many small communities . These communities are Riley Brook , Blue Mountain Bend , Oxbow , and Three Brooks . It then passes through the town of Plaster Rock , where just below it is joined by the Wapske River . The Tobique flows west from there , past the Tobique First Nation , to the Saint John River . Just before the Tobique Dam , facing the dam , there is a beach to the left side , which is private property and a heavy rock cut to the right . This makes for very beautiful pictures during the fall foliage .
The Magaguadavic River ( /ˌmæɡəˈdeɪvɪk/ mag-ə-DAY-vik ; French : Rivière Magaguadavic ) is an historic Canadian river located in the province of New Brunswick . The name Magaguadavic is a Maliseet / Passamaquoddy term that is believed to translate into River of Eels .
The Tinker Dam is a hydroelectric dam built in Tinker on the Aroostook River in the Canadian province of New Brunswick , and operated jointly by WPS Energy and NB Power . Its power house has a capacity of 34 megawatts . The dam and power house are collectively known as the Tinker Generating Station . The dam is located in Aroostook Junction , New Brunswick , immediately downstream of Fort Fairfield , Maine , and less than 1 km east of the Canada-United States border . The reservoir floods the Aroostook River valley into a portion of northeastern Maine . The dam was built in 1923 and the power house contains 5 hydroelectric units ( 1-5 ) which were placed in service between 1923-1965 . The Tinker Generating Station benefits from flow regulation upstream in Maine on Millinocket Lake and on the Aroostook River in Squa Pan . There are also control facilities and a power house canal located on the Maine side of the border . The Tinker Generating Station was constructed as a joint project of the New Brunswick Electric Power Commission and the Maine Public Service . In 1999 , the Maine Public Service sold its share of the plant to WPS Power Development , LLC of De Pere , Wisconsin . WPS Power Development operates in Canada under its subsidiary WPS Canada Generation , Inc . The dam spans the river between Andover Parish on the south side , and Grand Falls Parish on the north side , both in Victoria County .
