Now a National Historic Landmark, Hoover Dam has offered tours since 1937. Today, the dam draws nearly a million visitors a year. Tourists are not only intrigued by the dam’s immense size and its huge hydroelectric generators, but also by the elegant Art Deco designs on the dam’s four towers, spillways, and power plant. The Nevada side plaza features two Modernist-style bronze sculptures called the Winged Figures of the Republic and a polished terrazzo floor.
"The reason Rachel Maddow's "Lean Forward" ad is so funny is that nobody thinks liberals such as her would support anything like the Hoover Dam today. But by today’s green standards, it is a crime against nature. If you tried to build it, the Natural Resources Defense Council and Greenpeace would be in court tomorrow blocking it, with Ms. Maddow cheering them on.
...Ironically, liberals love building highways and bridges, but loathe making it affordable to drive on them." --Jonah Goldberg

To contruct hydro powerplant, the biggest job is to construct the dam and tunnel for penstock. Not like thermal powerplant ,we shall provide water treatment facilities, demin water for boiler, cooling tower, condenser/heat exchanger etc. Agreed Hydropower plant is environment friendly but land acquisition is the longest time prior to commence construction. Thank you !!
