Dam.
Retired Ma. Gen. T. M. Robins
said a re-regulation dam would be
needed to make navigation possi
ble as a result of the proposed
Hells Canyon Dam in the Snake
Hiver between Idaho and Oreeon.
He testified as an Idaho Power
Co. consultant at the Power Com
mission hearing on the firm's ap
plication to build three dams to
cost 165 million dollars in the
Hells Canyon area.
Hobins said Army engineers rec
ommended a re-regulating dam to
smooth out the flow of the Snake
in the deepest canyon on the con
tinent. He said the Reclamation Bureau
has not proposed a second dam.
but possibly would decide to put
one in after the first project is
completed. '
To reduce fluctuation In the riv
er's level and permit navisation.
Robins said, power operations
would have to be curtailed without
a re-regulatinT dam. Interference
with power generation would be
"material." he added,
Robins said also a witness for
public power groups based bis pro
Hells Canyon report on an un
reasonable assumption.
He said John S. Cotton, former
Power Commission engineer,
based his report on a prediction
'that a large number" of dams
would be built in the Columbia
Basin within 25 years. Robins said
DOyears would be a more reason

he made a fair comparison 01
opposing plans for developing the
Snake River.
He said the three smaller dams,

need for the proposed federal prot

ate money to build dams in the

schedule planned by Army Engi

Mrs. Cooper noted that Robins
had estimated 2 i billion dollars
would have to be appropriated to
build projects which would operate
in the engineers' master plan for
the basin during the next SO years.
She said appropriation!: in the
past have been running 140 million
dollars annually and if they con
tinue at the same rate the i
billion would be made available
on schedule.
