Let There Be Light

The Olmsted Power Plant, a historic structure, was constructed in 1904 by a predecessor to Rocky Mountain Power and is still in use today.  The plant generates power from water diverted from the Provo River.  During the last 100 years, water has reached the plant by both wooden flume and steel pipeline.
