IS AT FLORENCE LAKE LOS ANGELES. March 20. 0 The Florence )oke tunnel, 15 feet high and the snme length extending more than 13 miles, mostly through solid granite in a suaky line under the high Sierras, is a construction feat that has drawn the attention of the engineering world. It has just been completed. The tunnel is one of the most Im portant works in the Big creek-San Joaquin river project of the South em California Edison company. The entire project will bring in 1.407.000 horsepower, nnd, with its transmis sion lines, sub-stations and acces sories, will cost $T5.00tl,fHK), Expensive Projoct The tunnel itself coat $17,000,000. It was started in the fall of 1020, ami since then without a stop the work has been maintained in relief shifts. The scene of operations is 2.V) miles north of !oa Angeles and 3.5 miles south of the Yosemlte val ley. The purpose of the tunnel is to convey water from the Florence lake watershed, source of the south fork, of the San Joaquin river, through the barrier of a 10,000-foot mountain ridge into the watershed of Huntington lake. Huntington lake is the reservoir of supply for the four great units of the electric com pany which supptise a large part of central and southron California with light and power. World Records Fall World records for tunnel construc tion have fallen during ' the four years' progress in the HJerran. The 13-mile bore was divided into three sections, with two lateral adits cut into grnnite slopes and a crew work ing each way from each adit. The bore whs completed a year and a half sooner than the optimistic esti mates contemplated whou tho tunnel was started. The completion of the tunnel will be followed by the creation of Flor ence lake, to store 31.000 ocre feet of water at an elevation of 73KM) feet. The total drop from Hunting ton lake through a chain of tunnels ami power houses to the lowest pow er house is about 6HK) feet. The whole project when completed will have 80 miles of tunnel, with about 18 power houses. The orig inal development in the Big creek project, started In 1012. consisted of two powr houses developing 8S.000 horsepower. A 220.000-volt transmission line conveys the power genernted by these plans 270 miles to Los Angeles.
