Abstract
For more than forty years the possibilities of power development in the lower course of the Susquehanna River have engaged the attention of engineers and capitalists. The first evidence of contemplated power development in this river is found in the Act of the Legislature of the State of Maryland which was passed in 1884, authorizing The Susquehanna Water Power and Paper Company of Hartford County to acquire, by condemnation, certain property necessary for the proper extension and development of its existing dam or any dam it might locate or build near that site.
