| NAWAPA |
|
|
- Region:
Americas
- Countries: Mexico, USA
- The Ralph M. Parsons engineering company prepared the
original plans for NAWAPA in the early 1960s.
|
|
- The idea involved damming three rivers in Alaska and
Canada's Yukon Territory and directing the water southward via a chain of reservoirs,
dams, and channels, making use of the 500-mile Rocky Mountain Trench, located at an
elevation of 3,000 feet in the Canadian Rockies.
- Only in Montana would lift pumps be needed, to move the
water higher so that the gradient would be enough for gravity flow to continue, even as
far as Mexico.
