摘要
In 1883, Thomas Evershed, a recently emigrated English civil engineer, was hired by the State of New York to survey the Niagara Reservation. The reservation was intended to protect the area around the falls from being overrun by industrial development. Evershed realized that the reservation would restrict the expansion of power development to the High Bank area below the falls. To use the area above the falls, some unconventional means of water delivery would be needed. © 2003-2012 IEEE.
