Legislative Council Members Tour
Proposed River appointments

Plans for development of dam
projects at Bloomington and Saw
age river have been approved in
all studies for the development of
the Potomac river basin, members
of the Potomac River committee
were informed recently.
Members of the Legislative
Council have completed an inspec-
ton of the two area reservoirs, ar
irving in Oakland last Wednesday
night and making the tour Thurs
day
The first visit was to the site of
the proposed Bloomington dam,
where legislators were briefed on
the proposal by Albert Erickson,
of the Army Corps of Engineers,
and Carl j. Johnson, executive di-
rector of the Interstate Commits
sion on the Potomac River Basin.
johnson said they were told
water impounded by the dam would
not be good for human consump-
ton because of its acid content,
but would free water from the
Savage river reservoir for domestic
