Marten Falls Indian reserve : proposed development plan / MIE Consulting Engineers Ltd.: R39-20/1981E-PDF
"The Marten Falls Reserve is located on the Albany River at its confluence with the Ogoki approximately 140 miles north of Geraldton. The present community is comprised of about 30 dwellings, strung along the shore of the river. Past development has not been carried out in any kind of planned way; consequently, the houses are in a single line facing the single street of the community and the river on the other side. At present the only central services in the town serve the infrastructure constructed by the Department of Indian Affairs, that is, the school, the Band office, the community hall, the teacher's house and the dwelling used by itinerant government employees. Electricity is available to these few buildings from a small generating plant which normally operates, at least in the winter, at full output. The airstrip servicing the community was constructed in 1979 by the Provincial Ministry of Transportation and Communication to handle light aircraft"--Introduction, p. 1.
