Boundaries of analysis: an inquiry into the Tocks Island Dam controversy
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6816538
This is a study of what happens to technical analyses in the real world of politics. The Tocks Island Dam project proposed construction of a dam on the Delaware River at Tocks Island, five miles north of the Delaware Water Gap. Planned and developed in the early 1960s, it was initially considered a model of water resource planning. But it soon became the target of an extended controversy involving a tangle of interconnected concerns -- floods and droughts, energy, growth, congestion, recreation, and the uprooting of people and communities.
