The average flow time, found by noting how long it took for the taped units to get to final prep, was seven weeks. One week of that was the flow time from the start of the drill-and-tap to assembly.…

Situated north of Grand Canyon National Park, the Glen Canyon Dam serves a multitude of purposes: it controls the distribution of sediment and water, generates $50 to $100 million worth of hydroelectricity, maintains a cold-water trout fishery, and allows for recreational activities in Lake Powell (NRC 1). However, it has also incurred damages to the surrounding environment, which holds cultural significance for the indigenous tribes. In 1988, former Secretary of the Interior Manuel Lujan initiated the Glen Canyon Dam Environmental Impact Studies (EIS) to examine the downstream impact of dam operations. The USBR was first to join the EIS, followed by the National Park Service and state agencies (Austin and Drye 288). However, tribal involvement…

You may be wondering how the dam burst in the first place. Well according to McCullough there were many factors. The dam itself had many internal flaws, like the fact that it sagged a bit in the very middle of the dam where it needed to be the strongest, it would not have been noticeable to the regular eye though. The dam was part of the South Fork Hunting and Fishing Club, which was a prestigious summer, mountain club. It had members such as Andrew Carnegie and Henry Clay Frick. The dam created a lake for the members of the club to go boating (which was very rare, especially in the mountains), but when the dam was being rebuilt for this club many things were overlooked. For example the fact that there was no way of controlling the amount of water it held, this meant that once they raised the level of the water there was no way to go back. There were also many small leaks that were overlooked, passed off as, “springs that came from near the ends of…
