Would Protect Lands f ''
The college trustees have sug
gested that this river diversion
plan will protect from inundation
the more valuable lands of the
college and the lands upon which
the most important agricultural
research is conducted.
However, the college would have
to be provided .with a new intake
for its water supply, since the
water is now pumped from Seneca
river at a point in the area around
I which the water will be diverted.
It would also be necessary to con
struct a sewerage treatment plant,
since the flow of Seneca river
•would no longer be available to
carry off waste.
If this diversion plan is adopt
ed some 7.400 acres of college Land
would be inundated hut the only
college activity completely crip
pled would be the agricultural en
gineering experiment project on
Seneca creek. This, area, includ
ing irrigation storage ponds, fields
on which irrigation experiments
are conducted and the reclaimed
area along Seneca creek would
be inundated.
College officials have said this
activity- could be resumed on oth
er areas with much less loss and
inconvenience than .would" be true
of many other college activities-

The Clemson college board of trustees this week released the above map showing how a diver
sion of Seneca river would save 1,614 acres of valuable college lands from inundation by Hartwell
dam reservoir as it is now planned at 660 feet above mean sea level. The map shows college lands,
the portion that would be flooded by Hartwell reservoir and the path of the river diversion. Col
lege officials have said that damage to college lands if the present project is completed will be "enor-j
mous and irreparable and that South Carolina's agricultural research will be dealt a blow from which
it may never recover."

Accompanying the diversion
suggestion is a detailed map that |
depicts most of the 9,000 college'
acres that would be flooded by
the present Hartwell dam project, I
the 1,614 valuable bottom lands)
that * can be saved by diversion |
and a possible diversion course
for Seneca river.
The boprd has previously stat-
echthat if Hartwell dam is built
to its plapned height of 660 feet
above mean sea level—and if the
river is not diverted—college lands
will suffer “enormous and irre
parable damage and that South'
Carolina’s agricultural • research
will be dealt, a blow' from which'
it may never recover.’’
The map represents the diver
sion plan suggested by Lockwood
Greene Engineers, the firm em-|
ployed by Clemson college in con
nection with the Hartwell dam
project.
i The plan calls for two diversion
dams, one across Seneca river just
north of the. Southern Railway
bridge and another one mile south'
of the old Cherry place and Utica
Mohawk mill.
Use Natural Channels
i The new river channel, about
five miles in length, would use the
natural valleys and stream lines
to the fullest extent ’ passible. It
would cross under the tracks of
the Southern Railway and High
way 123 just west of the crest of
the hill beyond Seneca river, flow
ing into a pond created by the*
damming of Seneca creek on the
old Ravenel place.
From that pond the new chan
nel would extend southward to
another pond created by the dam
ming of a small branch, and from
that through a canal about a mile
long into Martin’s creek. It would
cross under the Carolina & North,
western railway west of Utica Mo
hawk mill.
Lockwood Greene Engineers es
timate that construction of this
diversion canal would save 2,624 j
acres from inundation, 1,614 acres i
of which are valuable college
lands. Included in this is 336 acres
of the land willed to the state' of
l South Carolina by Thomas G.
Clemson apd 371 acres of the lands
bought by the state of South Car
olina for the college during its
early years. • '
i This diversion of Seneca river
) would prevent any damage to
Clemson Memorial stadium, to the
veteran housing Am its 1 pear the
stadium and to the dairy pastures
along Hunnicutt cneek-
In addition to the college lands
and facilities that will be protect
ed, this plan would also prevent
inundation of about 42 attrac
tive houses at Excelsoir mill which
appear below the elevation to
which -the corps of engineers'is
obtaining land. The diversion
would protect Clemson Memorial
bridge on the present route of U.
S, Highway 123, the Cherry’s
Crossing highway" bridge, the
bridge of Carolina and Northwes
tern Railway Co, at Cherry’s, and
a numhereof privately owned hous
es recently -constructed near Utica |
Mohawk miliX,
It would be necessary to con-,
struct* a pumping station at the
lower diversion dam to puJnp jnto|
the lake the rainfall covering a
6,000 acre drainage basin. Lock-
wood Greene Engineers have esti
mated that pumps with a capacity
of 666 cubic feet per second will
be required to remove this water
at its greatest intensity. The Clem
son board proposes that all pump
ing stations be built, operated and
maintained by the United’States
