The system would involve building massive dams on the Liard, Mackenzie, Peace, Columbia, and Fraser river systems and pumping water into a 650-kilometre (400 mi) long reservoir in the Rocky Mountain Trench. The water would then flow by gravity to irrigate more than 220,000 square kilometres (85,000 sq mi) in the three countries and generate ...
A fraction of a mile below this, Rush Creek enters from the left, and the river reaches Cougar Dam and power plant. [3] Another stream gauge is beyond the dam, at about RM 4 (RK 6).
