Engineer Says Hells Benefits
Hinge On Lagging Program
By JOHN KAMFS ' ' I
WASHINGTON Wl A former
Army engineer said Thursday ben
efits from the proposed federal
Hells Canyon TJam depend on a
2 2 billion dollar government con
struction program for the Colum
bia River Basin which will fall far
behind schedule for economy rea
sons. '
T. M. Robins, retired major gen
eral and former division engineer
at Portland, Ore., challenged ben
efits claimed , for the proposed
Snake River dam at a Power Com
mission hearing on Idaho Power
Co.'s applications to build three

along the Idaho-Oregon border.
Robins said he doubted the fed
eral projects in the Columbia Riv
er Basin could be completed on
schedule because "I don't see how
they possibly could get appropria
tions irom Congress in view of the
present drive to balance the bud
get during the trend for economy."
Some of the projects in the Ar
my Engineer plan for the basin
are complete, others are unaer
construction. Some are authorized
but have received no appropriations.
Robins said major flood control
reservoirs in the Army Engineer
master control plan would be Hells
Canyon, John Day, Payette, Boise,
Palisades, Priest Rapids, Grand
Coulee, Libby, Glacier View and
Hungry Horse.
He estimated those projects and
others in the plan, plus power
transmission facilities, would cost
2 ',2billion dollars.
Idaho Power contends Its pro-
nosed 133-m!U!on-dollar setiesvt
three dams would be superior to
the 400-million-dollar federal Hells
Canyon Dam because the latter's
power and other benefits depend on
construction ol all tne ovner proj
ects. '
Robins said Idaho Power's plan
would provide exactly the same
navigation benefits as the federal
proposal.
He declared some navigation
benefits named for the big dam
"are highly theoretical."
Public power proponents have
claimed the federal Hells Canyon
Dam would make navigation pos
sible above the reservoir U. would
form.
Robins said this benefit would
be of little or no value because.
the reservoir's level would flue
tuate 282 feet vertically and the
90-mile long reservoir would shrink
SO miles at times.
Benefits claimed for making pos
sible the shipping of ore and con
centrates upstream "cannot be
Justified or claimed as a benefit
to the general public," the gen
eral said.
Turning to flood control, Robins
said Hells Canyon Dam, operating
with other future projects, would
not play "too much part" In the
master control plan. He said it
would lo . ei the floor stage down
stream less than one foot.
Operating alone and without res
ervoirs which haven't bee'n con
structcd, the Hells Canyon Dam
would provide "no flood control
at all," he said.
Robins submitted data showing
that the Snake River does the least
flooding of any major Columbia
tributary. He blamed the Salmon
and Clearwater rivers which en
fer the Columbia downstream, for
most of its floods,
Robins, as Pacific Northwest di
vision engineer in 1932-38, was in
charge of navigation and flood con
trol work for the Army Engineers
in the Columbia Basin. He said he
made numerous surveys and re
ports to Congress, including those
lor Bonneville and McNary Dams.
Bonneville is complete and Mc
Nary will be completed soon.
