A ..
Yes.
Q ..
Well, apparently Einstein had done some sedimentation studies and developed some
kind of format.
A
Well, yes, that was one of the major concerns as to how the sediments would divide
up in addition to the way the water would. They could control the water, but they
couldn't necessarily control the sediments. It was a problem. I don't remember the
details of it, but it was a factor that they were concerned about quite a bit when they
built the structure.
Q ..
It apparently was primarily a sediment problem, where it would go down the
Atchafalaya or down the Mississippi.
A ..
Down the river, yes.
Q ..
How about Arthur Ippen?
A
He was MIT, I guess. I don't remember having any direct relationships with him.
It might have been at meetings, at technical meetings, but it was nothing--I had no
direct relationship with him.
Q ..
How about Vito Vanoni?
A ..
No, I think he was in sedimentation.
Q ..
Well, these are some figures that we're trying to.
A ..

Yes, yes.
