Utah History To Go - Provo Area
Throughout the city's history, Provo has served as Utah Valley's center of industry, commerce, and government. One bustling example is the Provo Woolen Mills. Since sheep thrived in Utah's climate and a mill site was readily available on the Provo River to supply water and power to a plant, the Provo Woolen Mills opened in 1872 as Utah's first large factory. The LDS Church and private donations paid for its construction and upon completion, it employed upwards of 150 people. Many of its workers were skilled immigrant laborers from British textile factories. Later, the Provo factory turned to young women to run the looms. It specialized in heavy woolens; blankets, shawls, yarns, and flannels with about one-third of them being exported. The Provo Woolen Mills experienced ebbs and flows, continuing to operate until 1932. ... [Read More]

More About Provo River-Utah Lake Home Page
The Provo River historically provided abundant fish and wildlife habitat. That habitat was significantly altered with European settlement. The lower Provo River was altered to serve as a transportation channel for municipal, irrigation and industrial water. The river was also impacted in many areas by irrigation diversions, highways, railroads, reservoirs and urban encroachment. Impacts to the lower river section, along with changes in Utah Lake, contributed to significant decline of the endangered June sucker. Middle Provo River wildlife resources were impacted by the 1950s diking and straightening of the river as part of the Provo River Project, the 1993 inundation of five river miles due to filling Jordanelle Reservoir, and dewatering due to irrigation diversions. Portions of the upper Provo were also channelized and many natural lake basins dammed in the early 1900s to provide water storage. ... [Read More]
