There were cold water pipes built into it to cool the concrete. When the concrete was finally cooled and settled, the pipes themselves were filled with concrete. The dam is so huge, if it weren’t for those pipes, it would have taken close to 70 years to settle.

I live a short drive away from it. It straddles the Nevada-Arizona border and is as thick on the bottom as an American Football field from goalline to goalline.
