Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the investigation of a proposed dam project at the confluence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers in California. Conducted between 1924-1926, the study was born from a need to solve an ongoing salinity crisis in California's delta region, where freshwater used to combat saltwater incursion was in increasingly high demand. The author, an engineer on the project, provides detailed accounts of field investigations, data analysis, and design considerations. The book also includes preliminary cost estimates for sixteen potential dam designs, each tailored to site-specific geological conditions. Three alternative designs are presented, with each design weighing the advantages and disadvantages of its features against its estimated cost. The author concludes that a dam at any of the proposed sites is geologically feasible and would effectively control salinity in the region, but at great expense. This book will interest historians, environmentalists, and anyone curious about the history of water management in California. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
