Attached description: An extensive program of development was undertaken for the new Skeena Kraft mill water supply. Dams were constructed to improve storage in the several lakes supplying the water; these are primarily, Diana, Prudhomme and Rainbow. This picture shows the large dam constructed on Diana Lake. A 78-inch wood stave pipeline was built, and now supplements the 48-inch pipeline that served the existing sulphite mill. Enough water is transported to supply a city of more than 100,000 population.
