ENGINEER'S REPORT ADDS
TO INTEREST IN POWER SITE
(Contlued from page 1)
would cost approximately 382,500 or
$150 per horse power, for the de
velopment of 450 horse power, the
amount which he figures necessary
for the present requirements of the
city.
Transmission and Distribution.
$55,000 1 the approximate amount
which he figures would be necessary
for a transmission line from the pow
er plant to Pendleton and for a dis
tribution system in the city. He di
vided the cost as follows:
Transmission line, 30 miles
ut $750 $22,500
Sub btatlon and step down
transformers 2,500
Distributing system in city.. 30,000
$55,000
Total cost of power plant,
transmission line and dis
tributing system $142,000
Annual Cost To City.
The annual expenses to the city for
the operation and maintainenee of
the 4 50 horse power pfctnt he esti
mates at $22,230, divided us follows:
Interest on bonds at 6 pc-r
cent $ 8.520
Operating expenses 6,700
Maintainenee and repairs, 2
per cent 2,840
Sinking or renewal- fund, 3
per cent 4.260
Total $22,230
A charge of $56 per h. p. per an
num would meet all of the fixed
charges, lie estimates.
"It should be born In mind," he
writes, "In considering this project
that while the first cost of the plant
and lines Is high for the small de
velopment, the property, that is, the
site rind water right connected with
It, will have an ever Increasing val
ue for the greater development, the
cost of which I have shown you is
very low. The occupancy of this site
will control the water right for power
between, the diversion point and the
power house site. I huve shown you
that the irrigation rights can never
exceed that necessary for tho land
in the valley below these points. I
have placed the limit of such rights
at 33 second feet but I believe It will
hf less than half when finally set
tled." I , (cation lN-Nt in Valley. '
In speaking generally of the power
site location, Mr. Whistler has the
following to say:
"The Walla Walla river because of
Its rapid fall fluctuates very little In
depth of water. In this respect it Is,
therefore, a desirable power stream
for any plant. U apparently Is not
subject to those extraordinary' high
floods which make It so expensive to
maintain good deliverance.
"About 2 1-2 miles below forks of
the river on the south side, there Is
a fairly flat bench back of the rlm
rook which will provide reasonably
cheap storage for daily fluctuation in
power use or load factor. This more
than any one thing fixes the location
of the best power development plant
In this part of the valley."
Estimate Are Conservative.
Notwithstanding Mayor Matlock's
assertion that, judging from experi
ence of most estimates on the cost
of different projects, the actual cost
of a municipal plant would prove
greater than the estimates submit
ter. Engineer Whistler's troport. as
pointed out by Councilman Dyer,
seemed to be very conservative. In al
most all cases tho figures being
based upon extreme estimates. For
Instance, whereas the state engineer
by his maps of the Walla Walla river
valley shows the full of the river be
tween the proposed point of diversion
and the proposed power site to be
380 feet, Mr. Whistler figures from
a basis of 835 feet. He estimates
that there is a 100 second feet mini
mum flow but makes his calculations
on the basis of 95. From an Investi
gation, he expresses the belief that
there are not more than 500 acres of
land which could draw water from
the river for irrigation purposes hut
he assumes for his estimate that
there are 1500.
