Two men in hard hats are seen near a large dam structure; one holds a yellow signaling device. A heavy vehicle transports a large component across a bridge in front of the dam. The transcript mentions workers who helped install and operate the cableway during the dam's construction in the early 1930s.
“and the main cableway operator was the same one who had helped install and operate the cableway” 18:04 · “during the dam's construction in the early 1930s.” 18:10 automatic transcript, may be wrong
The record
US Government work The record names a federal body as the creating agency. A work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person's official duties has no US copyright (17 U.S.C. 105; before 1978, section 8 of the 1909 Act). This says nothing about copyright outside the United States, or about music, stock footage or other material the film may incorporate. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
