On September 30, 1935, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt dedicated Hoover Dam.
To mark the 75th anniversary of that event, the Bureau of Reclamation, in cooperation with several vendors and partners, conducted a special event on September 30, 2010.
“Hoover Dam has significantly and positively impacted the American Southwest as well as the design and construction of dams and the development of water resources management projects around the world,” said Lorri Gray-Lee, Director of Reclamation’s Lower Colorado Region. “It is fitting to commemorate its 75th anniversary, and to look forward to its continued service to the people of the Southwest and the Nation.”
