Continued from Page 1 KYVKB entered into an agree ment with Bonneville in which they gave up control of Trojan in exchange for a lower rate for the output. Herggren said. Bonneville shoulders all fi nancial responsibility for the plant, Herggren said, but KYVKB still has "a good faith agree ment” to not take any action that could possibly harm tht povver plant. Therefore, KYVKH is staying silent on Measure -t so they can’t possibly violate that agreement. Herggren said. through weatherizing custom ers' homes and businesses. While 55 to (it) percent of EWEB customers now have some sort of energy-saving in sulation, Borggren said the tar get is 75 percent by 1996. "Our first effort is to use en ergy wisely, so we have to go out and use our resources to build new plants." he said But Borggren admitted con servation can only go so far Eventually, new power plants will have to be built “The '90s are a time of bal ance," ho said. "The power utilities and environmentalists ‘The board was polarized, and I tried to keep (the controversy) out of the organiza tion so we wouldn’t get drawn into inap propriate arenas. ’ — Randy Berggren "Closing Trojan wouldn't cripple us,” ho said. "People can expect a rate increase. (Measure 4) would just make it worse. ” A r.ite increase in the future is a near-certainty. Herggren said. Spiralling costs for raw power will force Pacific North west utilities to have an annual adjustment just to keep up with inflation. ’’We're trying to manage our costs so we don't incur more of a rate increase," Berggren said "If we hold it to just the infla tion cost, we’re doing pretty good.'' For the future, Berggren said EWEB is looking to increase its efficiency. "Conservation is the plan, he said. "EWEB has been a leader in that for a long time. We art; also trying to improve our distribution and the effi ciency of our plants, and find the best way to get the power from the plant to the custom er." One of the ways EWEB is looking to conserve energy is will have to recognize the worth of each other's positions and find a middle ground Finding new sources of pow er is difficult Nuclear power is an option. Herggren said, but at the moment, not an attractive one. "The social appetite for nu clear power is low." he said. "(Nuclear) is out there, and it's a viable resource, but it re mains to be seen if it's socially viable." Hut that's the future. For the present. Herggren wants to es tablish a good working rela tionship with the new board. "The new board is easy to work with." he said. "They're very demanding and diverse, but they look for common ground They want to make good decisions. "We don't have all the an swers." Herggren added. "We see all the issues, and that's where a good organization board relationship will lie so helpful."
