Inhaltsangabe

This is a comprehensive analysis of the St. Lawrence Seaway and New York State-Ontario Power Project, from the Niagara Frontier Planning Board.

This report explains why the board commissioned it and what wide-ranging data and government reports were used to form its conclusions. It is written to show how a major cross-border project could affect transportation, industry, and taxpayers across the United States and Canada.

- Discover the major findings: the combined seaway and power scheme is described as unsound when viewed as a single undertaking.
- See cost discussions, including comparisons to other large projects and the risk that actual costs could exceed estimates.
- Learn how the study analyzes potential effects on American labor, ports, and regional industries, and where benefits might be limited.
- Understand the role of ice conditions, seasonal limitations, and international coordination in shaping the project’s viability.

Ideal for readers interested in policy analysis, infrastructure planning, and economic assessments of large public works.
