This 1922 map shows the proposed ultimate development of the Big Creek Project to a size even larger than that first envisioned by John Eastwood. Still later plans added more powerhouses on the South Fork of the San Joaquin, but none were built before the depression ended work. Today, the Balsam Meadows Plant is near the site of old Powerhouse #5. Pg. 103.
