Commissioners Hear
Three-Fold Plan
For Potomac River

A tentative tnree-way program
to help develop parts of Maryland
and West Virginia along the North
branch of the Potomac river was
outlined to Maryland officials Mon
day in Washington.
County Commissioners from Gar
rett, Allegany, Frederick and Wash
ington counties were told of water
supply, flood control and other
benefits which would be provided
by the proposed dams.
The dams, still in an initial study
stage, would be On the north
branch about two miles above the
junction of Savage river; on Stony
river near Mt. Storm, w. Va; and
on Savage river. about three miles
above the present Savage River
dam.
Assistant Chief D.V.C. Birrell for
civil works, Washington district OF
the Army Engineers, emphasized
that local participation in the prof.
Gets must be assured before any
plans can be submitted to Con-
gress.
The projects, if finally approved
by Congress, would take 6 to s
years to complete and would pro-
vide for about 1000 jobs, Birrell
said.
He Listed these estimated bene-
fits:
Flood control, S254,OOO a year
additional water supply, S97S,OOO
pollution abatement, SABA, 900
power, S791 600; recreation, S303,

wildlife. $4,000.
Birrell said the North Branch
valley has. until recently, expert
enecd a level of business activity
below the national level. Conserva
ton of water resources will help
raise the level he said.
The proposed North Branch dam
would be 283 feet high, provide
1877, 500 acre feet storage, and pro
vide flood control, industrial water
supply and pollution abatement
The Stony River dam would pro.
vide power and recreation in ad-
dition to flood control, industrial
water. and pollution abatement. II
