ridgelines that descend into lower elevations and stream valleys. A watershed carries water "shed" from the land after rain falls and snow melts. Drop by drop‚ water is channeled into soils‚ groundwater‚ creeks‚ and streams‚ making its way to larger rivers and eventually the sea. Water is a universal solvent‚ affected by all that it comes in contact with: the land it traverses‚ and the soils through which it travels. The important thing about watersheds is: what we do on the land affects water quality

Warragamba Dam is the primary reservoir of water supply for Sydney and the Blue Mountains as one of the largest domestic water supplies in the world. It is located 65 km west of Sydney CBD‚ as shown on the map. It was created by damming the Warragamba River after a population boom and a horrific drought in Australia after WW1. Building began in the late 1940s until it was completed in 1960. It took 1‚800 workers and led to a town being built next to site‚ in order to house these workers. The dam covers

Hydroelectric is the most common alternative energy source currently in use in the world. A hydroelectric dam is complex and hard to set up. To create a hydroelectric plant‚ it typically takes a large river with a steep drop in elevation. The greater the drop and amount of water‚ the more electricity is generated from the greater potential energy the water has when it’s higher up. At the bottom of the a dam‚ there is an intake where gravity forces the water in and through a section called the penstock. The
