Additional Details:
Model of the St. Lawrence Power Project and Seaway. The powerhouse is being built jointly by Ontario Hydro and the Power Authority of the State of New York. Extending out from either side of the powerhouse are the dykes which will contain the headpond or water storage area. The Long Sault dam (upper center) will combine with the power plant itself to obtain and control this headpond in the amount required to operate the generators. To the left is a model section of the Seaway, showing proposed locks.
