Cataract’s power at their fingertips

From the Niagara Falls Review:

There are only a handful of people who can claim they do what Doug Rogers does for a living.

But even though he has what has got to be one of the most unique jobs in the world, Rogers is pretty nonchalant about it.

“It’s a good job,” Rogers says while looking out the tinted windows of a small, tower-like building perched on the Canadian bank of the Niagara River just upstream of Niagara Falls.

Rogers and his nine co-workers at the International Niagara Control Works quite literally control the flow of water over the mighty cataracts from a tiny command centre filled with computer screens and closed-circuit television monitors.
