From Campus Ph. 345-1651 r Hallack charges BPA interference By GREG WASSON Of the Emerald SALEM — Congress ap proved the Northwest Power Bill to ensure that Oregon, Wa shington, Idaho and Montana will coordinate their energy ef forts, but state Sen. Ted Hal lock, D-Portland, isn’t sure the legislation will have that effect. Hallack, who heads the Sen ate Committee on Energy, says his growing understanding of the bill leaves him suspicious. “There have been secret -1 It isn’t everyday somebody asks your opinion... and then listens ) During this month, Lane Transit District is holding a series of public workshops . . .

Page 8 Section A meetings, contracts negotiated by the wrong parties at rates that are different from those we were promised, a whole bunch of elements that don’t add up to me to be a wonderful, mar velous, enlightened piece of legislation.” Last week, the Senate ap proved SB 282, which estab lishes the mechanism by which Oregon’s representatives will be appointed to an inter-state council, charged with oversee ing decisions made by the Bon neville Power Administration. But according to Hallack, the BPA has already started to negotiate power contracts that will run for 20 years. ‘‘The months are going by and I’m guessing that it will be June or July before the council is in place. If everything is done in advance of the existence of a council, that’s directly violative of the spirit of the federal legis lation.” Before the council is select ed, each of the four states must create a procedure for choosing their two representatives. In the meantime, decisions are being guided by a transition team composed of two members ap pointed by each of the four governors. “The transition team is also going to conduct a so-called scoping study," says Hallack, “And some other things that are concomitant to laying the short and long-term plans that the federal law mandated the coun cil to do. Here again, if the plan has been neatly packaged by the transition team and the council isn’t sworn in until July, is that going to be a fait accompli? “The rush of things being done before there is a council is a very unhealthy sign.” Hallack’s counterpart in the House, Rep. Wayne Fawbush, D-Hood River, shares many of Hallack’s concerns. However, Fawbush says what's done is done.
