Abstract
A large number of potential Alaskan hydropower sites appear feasible of development. Some of them are favorably situated to facilitate the utilization of the Territory's mineral resources such as Fe, Cu, Ni, chromites, and possibly others. With decreasing availability of abundant, low‐cost supplies of hydroelectricity in the 48 States, Alaska's power potential warrants immediate consideration, especially in the southeastern and central portion accessible to tidewater for electroprocess industry establishment.
