La Tuque generating station

The La Tuque generating station is a hydroelectric power plant, located on the Saint-Maurice River, at the height of the city of La Tuque, in the province of Quebec, in Canada. This power plant is the property of Hydro-Québec. It is sixth of eleven hydroelectric dams on the river from the mouth.

Geography
With a catchment area of 32016 km2, the dam forms a large water tank of 800 ha. The mouth of the Bostonnais River flows into this great reservoir of Saint-Maurice River whose waters are retained by the dam. The next dam downstream on this river is the Grand-Mère's dam. The distance between these two dams offer a wide range of significant water for recreational boating.
