Off loading 1 set of turbine runner wheels at bay near Kenney Damn, bay was later named after the Apex Transporting Co. The wheels were made in Russia, transported to Seattle, barged up wash (could be Washington) to Kemano. All equip necessary for moving this was provided: trucks, barges, bulldozers, etc. and carried along. From Kemano to Horetsky Creek Road to Nechako reservoir then barged down reserve to dam area then trucked on logging roads to Vanderhoof. Then across country to Williston Reservoir. A huge undertaking with little publicity for some unknown reason. 1975-1980?

Photograph of with the outer housing of the turbine in place, work proceeds with the installation of generator 8 in Alcan's Kemano Powerhouse, which will increase cpacity from the present 784,000 kilowatts to close to 98,000 kilowatts (1,200,000 H.P). The instillation of Generator 8 is being carried out by Mattias & Nicol, general contractors of Vancouver B.C. Employees of Canadian Westinghouse are now on site and are erecting the generator. Work began early in February with completion date for September.
