- FROM DREAMS TO REALITY
-
-
-The ease of traveling through the Locks or over the St. Mary’s Rapids is
-now taken for granted but the dreams of building these structures began
-over a hundred years ago, just after Michigan became a state in 1837.
-
- [Illustration: Canoes crossing the river]
-
-Traveling from one side of the river to the other first began in canoes.
-Bands of Ojibwa Indians would camp and fish at the rapids they called
-“Bawating”, meaning rushing water.
-
-The rapids became a gathering point for as many as 50,000 Native
-Americans each summer, for centuries.
-
-In the 1600’s it became a settlement for French explorers and fur
-traders.
-
-Through wars control of the rapids went to the British in the mid 1700’s
-and finally, a shared border with the United States in the 1800’s.
-
- [Illustration: Building a lock]
-
-As copper and iron ore were discovered in the western Upper Peninsula in
-1830, ship traffic increased but had to be portaged over land at the
-rapids. This difficult task eventually led to construction of the first
-lock in 1855, and the second in 1871, a joint venture between the State
-of Michigan and the U.S. Government.
-
-In 1880, the first land transportation over the river between the U.S.
-and Canada was established with a railroad bridge. In 1895, the Canadian
-Lock was completed.
-
-In 1943 and 1969 two other U.S. locks were built, one of which is
-capable of carrying the 1000 ft. super freighters.
-
-From the 1880’s til the 1960’s the only forms of transportation across
-the St. Mary’s River, between the two Saults, were ferries and the
-railroad bridge.
-
-The inconvenience and delays of those days have been eliminated, thanks
-to the International Bridge.

-
-Nearly a decade of engineering study, legislative action in Lansing,
-Washington, Toronto, and Ottawa, and the sale of bonds to finance the
-project preceded construction of the bridge. Michigan Governor G. Mennen
-Williams and Ontario Treasurer James N. Allen were the main participants
-in groundbreaking ceremonies for construction of the bridge on September
-16, 1960.
-
- [Illustration: Bridge piers under construction]
-
-Dr. Carl Gronquist of the consulting engineering firm, Steinman,
-Boynton, Gronquist and Birdsall, designed the two-mile long bridge
-supported on 62 piers that would cost $20,000,000. The Michigan State
-Highway Department agreed to construct the Michigan approach to the
-bridge, a project costing very close to $4,000,000, which was tied into
-the Interstate Freeway system and financed 90 percent by federal funds.
-The International Bridge Authority then proposed a bond issue of
-$16,250,000 to raise the remainder of the money.
-
-The issue was divided into $8,400,000 in Series A bonds to be sold on
-the New York market, and $7,850,000 in Series B bonds, all to be retired
-within 40 years from bridge revenues. To facilitate financing, the
-Province of Ontario bought the entire Series B bonds in one sale and
-thus guaranteed a quick sale for the Series A bonds in the United States
-bond market.
-
-The International Bridge was opened to traffic on October 31, 1962.

- THE BRIDGE VIEW
-
-Located to the west of the locks and running parallel with the railroad
-bridge, the International Bridge “takes off” from the U.S. side near the
-campus of Lake Superior State University which overlooks the area from
-the site of the former Fort Brady.
-
-As you enter the first archway, the world famous Soo Locks are visible
-below.
-
-Further on, you’ll pass the International Boundary at the middle of the
-Bridge. Off to the west you’ll see a series of 16 gates. These gates
-control the water flow from Lake Superior down to the other connecting
-Great Lakes. The management of this water flow is operated by the
-International Joint Commission which makes determinations of gate
-activity based on the various lake levels.
-
-Within the rapids area, produced by the water rushing through the gates,
-there is a concrete berm, or wall, stretching about one quarter of a
-mile. The berm was constructed as a joint operation by the electric
-utilities of the U.S. and Canada. Its objective is to keep an adequate
-water flow around Whitefish Island, a natural spawning ground for
-salmon.
-
- [Illustration: The river below the bridge]
-
-Just beyond Whitefish Island is the Canadian Lock and then the power
-canal and the hydro-electric generating station of Great Lakes Power.
-
-Approaching Sault, Ontario, there is an excellent view of the city’s
-growing industrial complex with huge plants of the Algoma Steel
-Corporation—one of Canada’s largest steel mills—to the west, and the St.
-Marys Inc. paper plants to the east.
-
-The volume of traffic between the two Saults has more than quadrupled in
-the first twenty-five years of operation. Some 2,234,000 vehicles
-crossed the bridge in 1987, as compared to 415,000 vehicles carried by
-the ferries during their final full year of operation in 1961.

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org

-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to

+*** START OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK 62156 *** + + INTERNATIONAL BRIDGE AUTHORITY + SAULT STE. MARIE + + +The International Bridge Authority is a board composed of members from +the Province of Ontario and the State of Michigan. Its purpose is to +oversee management and operation of the International Bridge. + + For information, write to: + P.O. Box 317 + Sault Ste. Marie, MI 49783 + + [Illustration: Sault Ste. Marie Bridge] + + BRIDGE FACTS + + Name: The Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge + Length: Total maintenance length from American and Canadian + approaches—2.8 miles. + Cost: $20,000,000. + Designers: Steinman, Boynton, Gronquist & London, New York. + Construction: Started September 16, 1960. Opened to traffic October + 31, 1962. + Width: 28 foot roadway between curbs, providing 14 foot + traffic lanes in each direction. + Tolls: $1.50 each way for passenger cars. No extra charge + for passengers. Canadian money accepted at par. + Height: Roadway is 145 feet above ground level at its highest + point. + Clearance: Bridge has 124 feet minimum vertical clearance above + low water in ship canals. + Weight: 125,000 tons of which 114,000 tons are concrete and + 11,000 tons are structural steel. + Colors: Green and ivory. + Speeds: Maximum 30 miles per hour. + + + + + FROM DREAMS TO REALITY + + +The ease of traveling through the Locks or over the St. Mary’s Rapids is +now taken for granted but the dreams of building these structures began +over a hundred years ago, just after Michigan became a state in 1837. + + [Illustration: Canoes crossing the river] + +Traveling from one side of the river to the other first began in canoes. +Bands of Ojibwa Indians would camp and fish at the rapids they called +“Bawating”, meaning rushing water. + +The rapids became a gathering point for as many as 50,000 Native +Americans each summer, for centuries. + +In the 1600’s it became a settlement for French explorers and fur +traders. + +Through wars control of the rapids went to the British in the mid 1700’s +and finally, a shared border with the United States in the 1800’s. + + [Illustration: Building a lock] + +As copper and iron ore were discovered in the western Upper Peninsula in +1830, ship traffic increased but had to be portaged over land at the +rapids. This difficult task eventually led to construction of the first +lock in 1855, and the second in 1871, a joint venture between the State +of Michigan and the U.S. Government. + +In 1880, the first land transportation over the river between the U.S. +and Canada was established with a railroad bridge. In 1895, the Canadian +Lock was completed. + +In 1943 and 1969 two other U.S. locks were built, one of which is +capable of carrying the 1000 ft. super freighters. + +From the 1880’s til the 1960’s the only forms of transportation across +the St. Mary’s River, between the two Saults, were ferries and the +railroad bridge. + +The inconvenience and delays of those days have been eliminated, thanks +to the International Bridge. + + + + + SAULT STE. MARIE + “Rapids Of Sainte Mary” + INTERNATIONAL BRIDGE + + + [Illustration: The bridge site] + +Nearly a decade of engineering study, legislative action in Lansing, +Washington, Toronto, and Ottawa, and the sale of bonds to finance the +project preceded construction of the bridge. Michigan Governor G. Mennen +Williams and Ontario Treasurer James N. Allen were the main participants +in groundbreaking ceremonies for construction of the bridge on September +16, 1960. + + [Illustration: Bridge piers under construction] + +Dr. Carl Gronquist of the consulting engineering firm, Steinman, +Boynton, Gronquist and Birdsall, designed the two-mile long bridge +supported on 62 piers that would cost $20,000,000. The Michigan State +Highway Department agreed to construct the Michigan approach to the +bridge, a project costing very close to $4,000,000, which was tied into +the Interstate Freeway system and financed 90 percent by federal funds. +The International Bridge Authority then proposed a bond issue of +$16,250,000 to raise the remainder of the money. + +The issue was divided into $8,400,000 in Series A bonds to be sold on +the New York market, and $7,850,000 in Series B bonds, all to be retired +within 40 years from bridge revenues. To facilitate financing, the +Province of Ontario bought the entire Series B bonds in one sale and +thus guaranteed a quick sale for the Series A bonds in the United States +bond market. + +The International Bridge was opened to traffic on October 31, 1962. + + [Illustration: Bridge span under construction] + + + + + Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan + Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario + + + [Illustration: The completed bridge] + + + THE BRIDGE VIEW + +Located to the west of the locks and running parallel with the railroad +bridge, the International Bridge “takes off” from the U.S. side near the +campus of Lake Superior State University which overlooks the area from +the site of the former Fort Brady. + +As you enter the first archway, the world famous Soo Locks are visible +below. + +Further on, you’ll pass the International Boundary at the middle of the +Bridge. Off to the west you’ll see a series of 16 gates. These gates +control the water flow from Lake Superior down to the other connecting +Great Lakes. The management of this water flow is operated by the +International Joint Commission which makes determinations of gate +activity based on the various lake levels. + +Within the rapids area, produced by the water rushing through the gates, +there is a concrete berm, or wall, stretching about one quarter of a +mile. The berm was constructed as a joint operation by the electric +utilities of the U.S. and Canada. Its objective is to keep an adequate +water flow around Whitefish Island, a natural spawning ground for +salmon. + + [Illustration: The river below the bridge] + +Just beyond Whitefish Island is the Canadian Lock and then the power +canal and the hydro-electric generating station of Great Lakes Power. + +Approaching Sault, Ontario, there is an excellent view of the city’s +growing industrial complex with huge plants of the Algoma Steel +Corporation—one of Canada’s largest steel mills—to the west, and the St. +Marys Inc. paper plants to the east. + +The volume of traffic between the two Saults has more than quadrupled in +the first twenty-five years of operation. Some 2,234,000 vehicles +crossed the bridge in 1987, as compared to 415,000 vehicles carried by +the ferries during their final full year of operation in 1961. + + Published by Bill Davie, Trinity Productions. + + [Illustration: THE ST. MARY’S INTERNATIONAL WATERWAY BETWEEN THE TWO + SAULT STE.

-<p>The ease of traveling through the Locks or
-over the St. Mary’s Rapids is now taken for
-granted but the dreams of building these structures
-began over a hundred years ago, just
-after Michigan became a state in 1837.</p>
-<div class="img">
-<img src="images/p02.jpg" alt="Canoes crossing the river" width="800" height="582" />
-</div>
-<p>Traveling from one side of the river to the
-other first began in canoes. Bands of Ojibwa
-Indians would camp and fish at the rapids they
-called “Bawating”, meaning rushing water.</p>
-<p>The rapids became a gathering point for as
-many as 50,000 Native Americans each summer,
-for centuries.</p>
-<p>In the 1600’s it became a settlement for
-French explorers and fur traders.</p>
-<p>Through wars control of the rapids went to
-the British in the mid 1700’s and finally, a shared
-border with the United States in the 1800’s.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_3">3</div>
-<div class="img">
-<img src="images/p03.jpg" alt="Building a lock" width="800" height="582" />
-</div>
-<p>As copper and iron ore were discovered in
-the western Upper Peninsula in 1830, ship traffic
-increased but had to be portaged over land
-at the rapids. This difficult task eventually led
-to construction of the first lock in 1855, and the
-second in 1871, a joint venture between the
-State of Michigan and the U.S. Government.</p>
-<p>In 1880, the first land transportation over
-the river between the U.S. and Canada was
-established with a railroad bridge. In 1895, the
-Canadian Lock was completed.</p>
-<p>In 1943 and 1969 two other U.S. locks were
-built, one of which is capable of carrying the
-1000 ft. super freighters.</p>
-<p>From the 1880’s til the 1960’s the only forms
-of transportation across the St. Mary’s River,
-between the two Saults, were ferries and the
-railroad bridge.</p>
-<p>The inconvenience and delays of those days
-have been eliminated, thanks to the International
-Bridge.</p>

-</div>
-<p>Nearly a decade of engineering study, legislative
-action in Lansing, Washington, Toronto, and
-Ottawa, and the sale of bonds to finance the project
-preceded construction of the bridge. Michigan
-Governor G. Mennen Williams and Ontario
-Treasurer James N. Allen were the main participants
-in groundbreaking ceremonies for construction
-of the bridge on September 16, 1960.</p>

-<div class="pb" id="Page_5">5</div>
-<p>Dr. Carl Gronquist of the consulting engineering
-firm, Steinman, Boynton, Gronquist and
-Birdsall, designed the two-mile long bridge supported
-on 62 piers that would cost $20,000,000.
-The Michigan State Highway Department agreed
-to construct the Michigan approach to the bridge,
-a project costing very close to $4,000,000,
-which was tied into the Interstate Freeway system
-and financed 90 percent by federal funds. The
-International Bridge Authority then proposed a
-bond issue of $16,250,000 to raise the remainder
-of the money.</p>
-<p>The issue was divided into $8,400,000 in
-Series A bonds to be sold on the New York market,
-and $7,850,000 in Series B bonds, all to be
-retired within 40 years from bridge revenues.
-To facilitate financing, the Province of Ontario
-bought the entire Series B bonds in one sale and
-thus guaranteed a quick sale for the Series A
-bonds in the United States bond market.</p>
-<p>The International Bridge was opened to traffic
-on October 31, 1962.</p>

-<h3 id="c4">THE BRIDGE VIEW</h3>
-<p>Located to the west of the locks and running
-parallel with the railroad bridge, the International
-Bridge “takes off” from the U.S. side
-near the campus of Lake Superior State University
-which overlooks the area from the site
-of the former Fort Brady.</p>
-<p>As you enter the first archway, the world
-famous Soo Locks are visible below.</p>
-<p>Further on, you’ll pass the International
-Boundary at the middle of the Bridge. Off to
-the west you’ll see a series of 16 gates. These
-gates control the water flow from Lake Superior
-down to the other connecting Great Lakes.
-The management of this water flow is operated
-by the International Joint Commission which
-makes determinations of gate activity based
-on the various lake levels.</p>
-<p>Within the rapids area, produced by the
-<span class="pb" id="Page_7">7</span>
-water rushing through the gates, there is a
-concrete berm, or wall, stretching about one
-quarter of a mile. The berm was constructed
-as a joint operation by the electric utilities of
-the U.S. and Canada. Its objective is to keep
-an adequate water flow around Whitefish Island,
-a natural spawning ground for salmon.</p>
-<div class="img">
-<img src="images/p07.jpg" alt="The river below the bridge" width="800" height="589" />
-</div>
-<p>Just beyond Whitefish Island is the Canadian
-Lock and then the power canal and the hydro-electric
-generating station of Great Lakes Power.</p>
-<p>Approaching Sault, Ontario, there is an excellent
-view of the city’s growing industrial
-complex with huge plants of the Algoma Steel
-Corporation—one of Canada’s largest steel
-mills—to the west, and the St. Marys Inc.
-paper plants to the east.</p>
-<p>The volume of traffic between the two Saults
-has more than quadrupled in the first twenty-five
-years of operation. Some 2,234,000
-vehicles crossed the bridge in 1987, as compared
-to 415,000 vehicles carried by the ferries
-during their final full year of operation in
-1961.</p>

-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

Marie International Bridge + Length: Total maintenance length from American and Canadian + approaches—2.8 miles. + Cost: $20,000,000. + Designers: Steinman, Boynton, Gronquist & London, New York. + Construction: Started September 16, 1960. Opened to traffic October + 31, 1962. + Width: 28 foot roadway between curbs, providing 14 foot + traffic lanes in each direction. + Tolls: $1.50 each way for passenger cars. No extra charge + for passengers. Canadian money accepted at par. + Height: Roadway is 145 feet above ground level at its highest + point. + Clearance: Bridge has 124 feet minimum vertical clearance above + low water in ship canals. + Weight: 125,000 tons of which 114,000 tons are concrete and + 11,000 tons are structural steel. + Colors: Green and ivory. + Speeds: Maximum 30 miles per hour. + + + + + FROM DREAMS TO REALITY + + +The ease of traveling through the Locks or over the St. Mary’s Rapids is +now taken for granted but the dreams of building these structures began +over a hundred years ago, just after Michigan became a state in 1837. + + [Illustration: Canoes crossing the river] + +Traveling from one side of the river to the other first began in canoes. +Bands of Ojibwa Indians would camp and fish at the rapids they called +“Bawating”, meaning rushing water. + +The rapids became a gathering point for as many as 50,000 Native +Americans each summer, for centuries. + +In the 1600’s it became a settlement for French explorers and fur +traders. + +Through wars control of the rapids went to the British in the mid 1700’s +and finally, a shared border with the United States in the 1800’s. + + [Illustration: Building a lock] + +As copper and iron ore were discovered in the western Upper Peninsula in +1830, ship traffic increased but had to be portaged over land at the +rapids. This difficult task eventually led to construction of the first +lock in 1855, and the second in 1871, a joint venture between the State +of Michigan and the U.S. Government. + +In 1880, the first land transportation over the river between the U.S. +and Canada was established with a railroad bridge. In 1895, the Canadian +Lock was completed. + +In 1943 and 1969 two other U.S. locks were built, one of which is +capable of carrying the 1000 ft. super freighters. + +From the 1880’s til the 1960’s the only forms of transportation across +the St. Mary’s River, between the two Saults, were ferries and the +railroad bridge. + +The inconvenience and delays of those days have been eliminated, thanks +to the International Bridge. + + + + + SAULT STE.

Thus, we do not +necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper +edition. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search +facility: www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + diff --git a/62156-0.zip b/old/62156-0.zip Binary files differindex 0fbf69e..0fbf69e 100644 --- a/62156-0.zip +++ b/old/62156-0.zip diff --git a/62156-h.zip b/old/62156-h.zip Binary files differindex 468f335..468f335 100644 --- a/62156-h.zip +++ b/old/62156-h.zip diff --git a/old/62156-h/62156-h.htm b/old/62156-h/62156-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4aa64b0 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/62156-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,870 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> +<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> +<head> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> +<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" /> +<title>Sault Ste.

This difficult task eventually led +to construction of the first lock in 1855, and the +second in 1871, a joint venture between the +State of Michigan and the U.S. Government.</p> +<p>In 1880, the first land transportation over +the river between the U.S. and Canada was +established with a railroad bridge. In 1895, the +Canadian Lock was completed.</p> +<p>In 1943 and 1969 two other U.S. locks were +built, one of which is capable of carrying the +1000 ft. super freighters.</p> +<p>From the 1880’s til the 1960’s the only forms +of transportation across the St. Mary’s River, +between the two Saults, were ferries and the +railroad bridge.</p> +<p>The inconvenience and delays of those days +have been eliminated, thanks to the International +Bridge.</p> +<div class="pb" id="Page_4">4</div> +<h2 id="c2"><span class="small">SAULT STE.

The +International Bridge Authority then proposed a +bond issue of $16,250,000 to raise the remainder +of the money.</p> +<p>The issue was divided into $8,400,000 in +Series A bonds to be sold on the New York market, +and $7,850,000 in Series B bonds, all to be +retired within 40 years from bridge revenues. +To facilitate financing, the Province of Ontario +bought the entire Series B bonds in one sale and +thus guaranteed a quick sale for the Series A +bonds in the United States bond market.</p> +<p>The International Bridge was opened to traffic +on October 31, 1962.</p> +<div class="img"> +<img src="images/p05.jpg" alt="Bridge span under construction" width="800" height="567" /> +</div> +<div class="pb" id="Page_6">6</div> +<h2 id="c3"><span class="small">Sault Ste.

Off to +the west you’ll see a series of 16 gates. These +gates control the water flow from Lake Superior +down to the other connecting Great Lakes. +The management of this water flow is operated +by the International Joint Commission which +makes determinations of gate activity based +on the various lake levels.</p> +<p>Within the rapids area, produced by the +<span class="pb" id="Page_7">7</span> +water rushing through the gates, there is a +concrete berm, or wall, stretching about one +quarter of a mile. The berm was constructed +as a joint operation by the electric utilities of +the U.S. and Canada. Its objective is to keep +an adequate water flow around Whitefish Island, +a natural spawning ground for salmon.</p> +<div class="img"> +<img src="images/p07.jpg" alt="The river below the bridge" width="800" height="589" /> +</div> +<p>Just beyond Whitefish Island is the Canadian +Lock and then the power canal and the hydro-electric +generating station of Great Lakes Power.</p> +<p>Approaching Sault, Ontario, there is an excellent +view of the city’s growing industrial +complex with huge plants of the Algoma Steel +Corporation—one of Canada’s largest steel +mills—to the west, and the St. Marys Inc. +paper plants to the east.</p> +<p>The volume of traffic between the two Saults +has more than quadrupled in the first twenty-five +years of operation.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND +DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular +state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To +donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project +Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be +freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and +distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of +volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in +the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not +necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper +edition. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search +facility: www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/cover.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/cover.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..ce88d41 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/cover.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/map_hr.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/map_hr.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..d0d98b0 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/map_hr.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/map_lr.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/map_lr.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..861f5fb --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/map_lr.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p00.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p00.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..2c2cbe9 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p00.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p02.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p02.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..b05f2d6 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p02.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p03.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p03.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..612d9a0 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p03.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p04.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p04.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..5951596 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p04.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p04a.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p04a.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..96eea50 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p04a.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p05.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p05.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..21fda75 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p05.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p06.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p06.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..ee9cd80 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p06.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/p07.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/p07.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..18c14b5 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/p07.jpg diff --git a/old/62156-h/images/spine.jpg b/old/62156-h/images/spine.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..1a67ef6 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/62156-h/images/spine.jpg |
