Pag« 12 March 12,1982 Spilyay Tymoo New power poles, lines installed Installation of 50 new utility poles is complete and work has begun stringing wire to carry electricity generated at the Pelton Reregulating dam in Warm Springs when the dam is completed later this year. A Pacific Power & Light Company construction' crew finished setting the poles last week and are now threading heavy aluminum wire tnrougn large reels before permanent attachment to three-foot-long strings of insulators. At the same time, a second PP&L crew continues readying the Warm Springs substation to accommodate the increase lead. To maintain electric service to the reservation, the s u b s ta tin m u s t r e m a in energized during the construc tion. When the lines are in place, expected in mid-March, PP&L will reseed the area under the power lines to restore it to its original state. In a contract with the Confederated Tribes, PP&L agreed to buy electricity produced at the dam and to build for the Tribes a three-mile 69,000-volt line to an existing PP&L substation. Electicity consumed on the reservation, already served by Pacific P o w e r , a n d e le c t r i c i t y generated at the dam will be re co rd ed se p a ra te ly . The o u tp u t from th e P e lto n Reregulating dam will be purchased by PP&L at a price that reflects the higher cost of developing new generation sources. Pole-setting was completed on schedule despite difficulties presented by the terrain and heavier than normal precipita tion this winter. Steep canyon walls, one with a 44% grade, made setting the towering poles hazardous.
