Notes
  • Significance: Davis Dam is significant for its role in control of the lower Colorado River, fulfillment of obligations under the Mexican Treaty of 1944, and economic development of the Southwest after World War II. The electrical switchyards are a critical element of the Davis Dam industrial complex, providing connection and control of electricity produced at Davis Dam power plant for transmission to regional markets and interconnection with federal power plants by means of regional power grids.
