Notes
  • Significance: The Electron Project, originally known as the Puyallup Project, is characteristic of the turn-of-the-century Pacific Coast hydroelectric development in having a high head/low volume plant, impulse waterwheels, a long water-gathering network, and relatively long distance power transmission. The project is also a transition between a run-of-the-river project and a storage project. The wood flume at the Electron Project is likely the largest flume used in hydroelectric development in the country.
