In order to prevent a flood from ever overcoming the dam's capacity, spillway tunnels 650 feet long and 170 feet deep were excavated to lead flood waters into the concrete-lined diversion tunnels and past the dam. These "Glory Holes" were paved with concrete during the summer of 1933. One year after the first bucket of concrete was emptied into a form, the second millionth yard was poured. To the left of the sign stand superintendent Frank Crowe, assistant superintendent Bernard F. "Woody" Williams, and Bureau of Reclamation engineer Walker Young. To the right of the sign are Charles A. Shea, Henry W. Morrison, and Steve Bechtel of Six Companies, and John C. Page, office engineer for the Bureau. |
