This is a history article as well as a structures article

I wrote this thing in the first place, which is partly meant to be a subpage of the Bridge River Power Project, which I haven't written yet; it's a major historical item as well as engineering and both sections on this page can also be expanded; I'll be working with BC Hydro's archives department in the next few months and will be able to even produce lists of managing engineers and other senior personnel, numbers and types of employees, as well as histories of the local strikes and relations between the hydro workers and the local mining towns (all good; it was one of those last high, wild places in the tradition of the great gold rushes, but briding the modern era, and a relative beacon - a very isolated, difficult to get to, beacon - of prosperity during the Great Depression. By the time Lajoie started getting built, it was after the war and the place had changed quite a bit for various reasons, and a couple of towns and mines gone on the skids; but nearby Gold Bridge was a full-service town for the district and the Hydro townsites were known for their modernity.

But there's a structures stub here; can it also have a geostub? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skookum1 (talk • contribs) 06:55, 16 January 2006

Lajoie Dam construction

The dam is not an earthfill structure; it is a rockfill structure with an upstream concrete waterproofing membrane. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.6.102.131 (talk) 18:55, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
