There was a murder there over drugs allegedly in June 1987 mocked up to look like a suicide after a booze binge. Autopsy came back clean and wrists of the victim looked as if they had try to break the fall. Certainly people have jumped or died building it.

There were over a hundred people who died building the Hoover Dam, and they died from many causes. There is a link below to a section of an article on the Hoover Dam dealing with the deaths of workers.
About 5 miles up from any river, that flows from Shasta lake, will be flooded.
You are asking about the dam because lakes don't break and the closest city to it is Lake Shasta. If something did happen with the dam everyone who would be harmed by the break would be evaluated.
The main idea is to aid in the migration of salmon up the Sacramento River
Indirectly, yes. The snow that falls on Mount Shasta and in the Sierra Nevada mountains melts during the spring and summer. This water runs downhill, into Lake Shasta and into the Sacramento River. (Lake Shasta is a reservoir behind Shasta Dam.) This water contributes to the drinking water supplies in northern California.
There were a total of 114 deaths associated with the building of the Hoover Dam. The official figure however, is 96. Figures other than the official figure vary from the official 96 deaths to 112-114. According to the website of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, figures higher than 96 are including additional deaths such as deaths prior to the authorization of the dam's construction, deaths of nearby workers that may or may not have been directly involved with the project, deaths of workers who died of causes unrelated to the project, and deaths of family members of the dam's construction workers. The Bureau of Reclamation also points out on it's site that despite myth and rumor to the contrary, there are no bodies buried within the concrete of Hoover Dam.
Yes, the snow that is on the mountain melts and creates Lake Shasta. They also have a dam which flows to be the Sacramento River and becomes the California aqueduct. Mt.Shasta that makes lake Shasta is very important because it brings water to everyone in Southern California.
The last eruption was in 1786. There were several Native American tribes who lived within view of Mount Shasta since the time of the first Euro-American contact in the 1820's. It is not known how many people were killed, since there is no written historical record kept by those tribes .
