Tot pits to ileteilnine the nature of the material underlying the reservoir site, cmbarkineiit line, and canal line were made. An examination of these by the lioard of consulting engineers led to an unfavorable reort on the project. A project east of the I'mutilla P.iver was studied and the prospect for it found favorable. Thi- is now called the Umatilla project. The Malheur project contemplates the reclamation of lands of Malheur Valley from above the town of Vale to Snake River.
