In March 1946 the Department of Works and Housing requested that a geological examination be made of the Upper Cotter Valley in the vicinity of Kangaroo Creek to determine whether a dam could be constructed near the junction of Kangaroo Creek with the Cotter River. A geological examination was subsequently made. This report deals primarily with a possible dam site, near the mouth of Kangaroo Creek, and includes only a brief addition to the general geology of the Upper Cotter Valley. The location, physiography, general geology, engineering geology, and recommendations for future work are discussed in this report.
