Little-Long as a capacity 205 MW. Was one of three stations which the Commission used to develop power potential in a 32 km stretch of the river on either side of Smoky-Falls. Ninety per cent of the run-off from the Mattagami river watershed is channeled to the Little-Long generating station. The station was named after the rapids. The new Mattagami river stations, Little-Long, Harmon, Kipling and the new highway 807 were officially opened by the Honourable John P. Robarts, Prime Minister of Ontario on July 21, 1966. The ceremony took place at the Harmon station.
