The result of these tests serves corroborate the expectation that it will be necessary to control the Waters by building dams at either or both Point to be let through at such times Asi the flow in the Churchill is insufficient to develop the maximum Load. The findings incline the engineers engaged in the work to favor the Reindeer area for immediate operations. 1 a dam at a Stowiak palls just be Low the settlement at Southend would raise the level of Reindeer four feet this for the present is expected to be ample for the purpose. Since this great body of water is about 153 Miles Long a third of that distance in Width at its widest Point it will be seen that it will prove an enormous storage. It is highly prob Able that More than a year would be required to Rise the Lake to the higher level. It is proposed to erect a pile dam with n Gate which can be raised in the period of Low water to permit the necessary increase of flow.
