IS THE NORTHWEST FACING AN ELECTRICITY SHORTAGE? tut You sure wouldn’t think so with all the rain we’ve had this past winter. But the facts say differently. This region will be on the edge of an electric power crisis the next five to six years. It al depends on whether we get a normal amount of yearly rainfall during that period. How co m e w e re in a fix? Con struction schedules of coal and nuclear powered steam-electric plants...in this region...have been delayed. As a result, projected electricity demand will exceed supply... if we have a bad year for rain. If that happens, power will be curtailed... involuntarily. And a lot of lights will go out. What is being done? New power plants are either in construction or just coming off the drawing boards. And if the construction is kept on track... by 1982-1983 the prospect of deficien cies will have eased. If n ot...th e prob lem could be even worse. The only thing standing between lights, on and lights o ff-fo r the next few y e a r s - is enough rain, and a serious region wide effort to conserve energy and use it wisely. Needless to say...you’ll be hearing a lot more about this problem in the months ahead. ANANSWER BLOWING IN THE WIND?

The Energy Research and Develop ment Administration (ERDA) is looking for places in the U.S. to build four giant experimental wind- powered electric generators. Pacific hos put in its bid by of fering ERDA o site near Cosper, Wyoming. The proposed generator is huge . . . about 15 stories high, with o blode about 150-200' long. If selected. Pacific will help ERDA research wind power by providing o site and technical assistance. The proposed wind machine would supply enough energy for about 20-25 overage homes...when the wind blows. , . . „ • z -y- ELECTRIC USE ON THE RISE » 1111111111111111111111•111111111111m I » 11111111• I ••• 11 • 1111 «11111111 ‘ 11 " Pacific’s custom ers used more e le c tricity on an annual basis last year than the last seven years.
