Halfway between the foot of the
east hill and the spillway the old
French canal channel runs through
the dam site, but it has been closed by
the construction of the south toe. The
silt and soft mud that had collected
in the bottom of this channel for the
past twenty years were not removed
when the construction of the toe was
begun, and when the weight of the
rock became great epongh it displaced
the soft bottom of the old channel
and forced it up 200 feet north of the
toe into the site of the dam.
“This was anticipated and desired.

“The plan for constructing tbe dam
is to pump sand and day upon the

above sea level and 1.700 feet wide
it’s across the valley. Thia sand and day
have been found in large quantities
down the Chagres valley, convenient
to the site, and have proved to be
good material for a dam. The dam
will be made by suction dredges,
which will pump tbe material) mixed

pose. of adding weight to the dam and
to prevent material from sliding north

is likely to do, two walls, or toes, are
being built across the valley.
