Oregon Experience: Bull Run
Dam Number One
Bull Run's Dam Number One was completed in 1929. The chief engineer on the project was a man named D.C. Henny. Henny later became a consulting engineer for the construction of the Boulder Dam (1936) on the Colorado River. Later renamed Hoover Dam, his later project bears a certain resemblance to Dam One.
