Mojave River Dam on High Alert of Breach
Infrastructure has taken the limelight again in Southern California as the Army Corp of Engineers issued a risk assessment of "high urgency of action"...
Mojave was established in 1876 as a construction camp for Southern Pacific Railroad. From 1884 to 1889, the town was the western terminus of the 165-mile (266 km), twenty-mule team borax wagon route originating at Harmony Borax Works in Death Valley.
