watts is now in operation.
Fabrication is expected to begin
Immediately in the successful bid
der's plant with actual work on the
job site to be done later.
An official statement from the en-
gineer office is believed TO be signi-
ficant in the light of unofficial re-
ports OF other work anticipated. 1t
said, This award is the first to be
made for postwar work which will
lead to completion of the Fort Peck
project and which was postponed
during the war emergency"
Several other contracts are in
volved in the installation of the
second generating unit. Announce
ment already has been made that
notice has been given the S. Morgan
Smith company of York, Pa, to re-
sumo work on the butterfly valves
required as part of the generator in
s%tallation. This work was interrupted
by the war The generator has been
completed and is in storage at the
powerhouse.
The powerhouse itself was COM
pleted under stringent wartime
shortages after clearance was given
by the war production board. The
original plan called for building
surge tanks above the powerhouse
which will be near the height of
the 240-foot dam.
Another project reported under
consideration is one to raise the
crest of the dam, construction of a
surfaced highway and pedestrian
walkway along the four-mile length
of the dixie and main dam section

road is to be extended directly
across the right bank hills to the

jectS we're under consideration for
Fort Peck before Pearl Harbor. The
army engineers also have jurisdic-
ton over flood control work in the
engineer district and a number of
local projects along the Yellowstone,
Milk and Missouri drainage have
been authorized.
An indication of stimulated
activity at Fort Peck since vi day
is the number of new residents
there. 1t was reported this week
that all residences are being filled
and in addition a number of apart
mentS in former barracks are being
readied for use.
The engineers have been allotted
funds for recreational projects at
reservoir sites and public hearings
On such plans are scheduled soon.
