About this map

The Milton R Young Powerplant and its adjacent Substation stand as the industrial focal point of this Oliver County landscape during the early 1970s. This facility sits on the eastern shore of Nelson Lake, a reservoir created to support the energy infrastructure of the region. The map documents the heavy industrial footprint of the era, including a nearby Strip Mine and an Aqueduct that cuts across the northern sections.
