Final fcfVfirmm'nt report on the practica- ,lility of tho $JU,oou,uuu ioiumma i Basin irrigation project, under which I it is proposed to rodamv approxi mately 2,000,000 acres of arid lunik in southeastern Wa.-hiritfttm, is ex pected tn be ready for HUhmission lo IcoiiKresM when the next session con j vouch in icceniher. Beinninif of I actual wcrk on the project awaits nn i appropriation by congress. Its up tpoi'tcrs contemplate waging a ac !tivo fij:ht for action as soon ns tho report of the interior depart ment engineers has been submitted. J Kniiieors i:S the department of the 'interior are enaed during the pros ent summer in a survey of the pro ject, nulhorihed under an nppropria tirn of $100,000 granted 1-y the last Iconjrio.vs. It is expected that the ! field work, including investigations I of geological formations and roil analysis, will be finished before fail, and that the report he drafted by Oecenvber 1, according to statement.1 of officials of the department of the interior. Tho present investigation is the third survey cf the project since its inception four and one-half yeaiM ago- After K. 1 Blaine of Seattle had laid before the late (Jovernoi K Lister a proposal for diversion of waters of Tend O'rielle lake, in northern Idaho, for irrigating a large tract in the Columbia Kiver Basin, tho .'Washington legislature in JOB) appropriated $100,000 for a prelim inary survey by state engineer::. The Columbia Basin survey commission was organized and started the in-1 vestigation, and two years later the legislature appropriated an addition al $130,000 for continuation of its I work. After the commission had made a fnvorahl'! report, the state in Feb ruary, V.I22, employed Major General (ioerge W. Coethals to make a fur ther investigation and report on thu teasihility ol the project from an engineering and economics stand He also made a favorable report. Operating independently of the state and the federal government for completion of tho project, but working in cc-oporation with both, the Columbia iBnsin Iirigation lea gue was organized at I'asco, Wash-, in April, iU2. The present program of the league, which is con ti oiled bv a hoard of directors rninnrisine ! representatives of the four Pacific northwestern stales, contemplates raising a fund of $200,000 for cen ilucting a campaign of education to obtain federal backing for complet ion of the project. Of this fund. approximately $127,00 has been r.ub- iHIIWU illlll ilDUUL .p.JU,UUU llil.-j UL'Uil paid in. . Of tho 2,000,000 acres of land in cluded in the project, 1,7,1:1.000 is classified as first class land capa ble of being placed under gravity irrigation. About iioO.OOO acre-i are susceptible of being watered by slight pumping, or are partly avail able to gravity irrigation, engineers reports show. The l aid is situated in Franklin, Adams, Grant and Wal la Walla counties in Washington, about 7fi miles from 'Spokane, 120. miles from Seattle and idl) miles! from Portland- , j Cost of the completed project, in-i eluding .several lateral canals, has1 been estimated at .$2-'i 0,000, 000, which would make the average cost per acre $147 to $171. This estimate was baed en costs of nvaterij-ls and la-1 bor during the high prices of 1021, j and engineers since have stated that the acre cost probably would not average more than $125. The nnnu:il maintenance cost has bv:n figured at forty-eight -euls an acre. Seven years would be required for corn plot ion of the project. Construction work will extend for Bio miles frein Newport, Idaho, the point of diversion of the water, to Pasco, Wa.h., the point of distribution- The water would 1m; carried for a part of th0 distance in a canal ninety feet wide and sixty feet deep, capable of an average I'lowagc rate of twelve miles an hour. Im the course of transmission frem Lake Pend O'rielle, the water would he carried past a large diversion dam at Albany Falls on the Pend O'rielle river, through six smaller lakes, earh with an impounding dam and seven tunnels. One ot these latter would penetrate u residence section of Spokane.
