Excerpt from Report on the Dam and Water Power Development at Austin, Texas: November, 1917 I have also investigated the physical conditions surrounding this installation, and in accordance with instructions I submit herewith my report. In order to present this matter fully, I have found it essential to describe some what brie y the history of the Austin dam and the conditions leading up to its de struction in 1900. I have also endeavored to explain the conditions and the engi neering principles on which the successful consummation of this project must rest, in as simple and plain a manner as possible, in order that the citizens of Austin may understand the defects found and the betterments needed to put the installation into safe condition. I have also endeavored to give the technical information on which my opinions rest, in sufficient detail that my findings may, if you desire, be reviewed and checked by other engineers without the further expense of elaborate investigations and calculations.
