What reading level is Report On the Salton Basin Irrigation Project book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Between the Intake and the 34th mile, the canal will pass through in the aggregate, about 21 miles of lands that Protection will be subject to overflow during very high floods, from Over- flow To prevent danger to the canal it will be necessary to prevent the flood waters from overtopping the banks and also to prevent the creation of a current along the outer bank. Ho expense or additional work will be required to prevent the overflow from overtopping the banks as the top of levee will be natur
...ally well above any possible flood level. Still water against the outer bank will do no harm, on the contrary, it would strengthen the bank by decreasing the resultant pressure from the water in the canal* Swift currents against the bank would destroy it by erosion and undermining. This will be prevented by two methods; the planting of willows and thus increasing the resisting power of the bank, and the building of jetties from the main levee to turn the current away from it. There is but one point on ^Q cana ^ Wn9r9 there is much danger from the en- croachment of the river's main channel, and that is in the 13th mile, immediately above El Rio, where a length of 100 yards will require strong protection.
