ST LAWRENCE PROJECT TROPHY FOR
American Legal Obstacles Finally Removed
Ottawa, July 5.
With American legal obstacles finally re- moved, work will begin on the Canadian-American power development in the St Lawrence river dur- ing this month according to Mr Robert Saunders, chairman of the Ontario Hydro commission which will share the project with the New York State Power authority. The green light also shines for the seaway construction.
The overall cost of the power
project is estimated at $600,000,000 (over £200,000,000), to be split equally by the international partners.
