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.
New employee orientation
An o rien tatio n will be
conducted on Tuesday, March
16, 1982, from 10:00 a.m. to
noon at the C om m unity
Center’s conference room.
The purpose of this meeting
will be to acquaint new
employees with the Tribal
organization and benefits the
Tribes offer. It is also a good
tim e to re a c q u a in t old
employees with new benefits,
new and changed policies, and
any other information they
may have forgotten.
All newly hired employees
are requested to attend. Also
invited are supervisors and any
other interested persons.
Crossing has new hours
D eschutes C rossing has
announced new hours for the
spring and summer months.
Starting on March 19, the
restaurant will be open from 8
a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday
through Friday. W eekend

Bottle drive scheduled for March 13
S im n a s h o sc h o o l 4-H
‘Discovery Club” students will
be coming to your door the
morning of March 13 asking for
your bottles. They will be there
between 9 a.m. and I p.m.
The 4-H youth are still trying
to earn enough money to go to
Hawaii on a cultural exchange
trip during Spring vacation.
They have worked hard and
have not yet reached their goal.
With only two weeks left
before they are scheduled to
leave, the students are making
a last effort to collect the funds
they need. Saturday’s bottle
drive will give the community
members the opportunity to
contribute to their efforts.
Geo-Quiz
Again no one was able to identify the location o f the last geo-quiz.
I t was located on the highway going down to the fish hatchery on
the left hand side o f the road. This geo-quiz is found on a very
heavily traveled highway. Correctly identify it and win a year’s
subscription.
