What project established the nuclear complex where Washington State Route 24 turns north to cross the Columbia River?
Washington State Route 24 State Route 24 (SR 24) is a 79.23 mi long state highway in the U.S. state of Washington. Beginning at an interchange with Interstate 82 (I-82) in Yakima, the highway travels east into the Yakima highlands before turning north at the Hanford Site to cross the Columbia River on the Vernita Bridge. From the crossing, the highway travels east through the Hanford Reach National Monument and turns north to end at SR 26 in Othello. The highway was known as Secondary State Highway 11A (SSH 11A) from 1937 to 1964 and was originally routed through the Hanford Site until the 1940s. The Vernita Bridge was completed in 1965 along with the route to Othello north of the Hanford Reach and paved in the 1970s.
Rampart Dam The Rampart Dam or Rampart Canyon Dam was a project proposed in 1954 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to dam the Yukon River in Alaska for hydroelectric power. The project was planned for Rampart Canyon (also known as Rampart Gorge) just 31 mi southwest of the village of Rampart, Alaska and about 105 mi west-northwest of Fairbanks, Alaska.
