An area of about 300 square miles was geologically surveyed in the Upper Murrumbidgee - Tumut River area. The object of the work was to investigate dam sites and tunnel lines in connection with a Hydro-Electric Scheme by which it is proposed to transfer water from the Murrumbidgee River into the Tumut River. Two proposed dam sites were examined. A detailed account of the topography, general geology, and engineering geology of these sites is given in this report. Accompanying geological plans are included.
