May 15. Company officials said the price reduction is possible because the new federal tax act is starting to reduce the company's tax iiuDiiuy. "Wc intended originally to use the tax benefits to offset the impact of the Bonneville Power Adminis trations expected rate increase later this year." said Jack Samper, regional vice president for Pacific Power. "But now that Bonneville has announced it will reduce the sie of its proposed increase, we are able to pass along the tax benefits to consumers as soon as the com mission approves the new prices." Although the new tax law pro vides the opportunity for the price decrease, Pacific has been working on stabilizing its prices for the past several years. Increased operating efficiencies and stall reductions have allowed the company to avoid sig nificant increases for two years. The company said it expects stable prices to continue over the next few years. i-'' f. f ' t y , - ...... -i "S ' t - , ... ' ' . ; "','', : '' ' . ''"'' ' ' ' -'i - , , , ". - ' ' ' ' ...

Teens see new affluence Teens in the United States are reaching new heights of affluence. Two-thirds of the teenage pop ulation in this country own stereos, and almost 90 percent own radios. Every day, more teens purchase Tribes, organizations file suit against BP A The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon, the National Wildlife Federation, the State of Idaho, the Washington Department of Fisheries and Game, the Norhtwest Resources Inform ation Center, the Salmon River Valley Chamber of Commerce and others filed their opening briefs April 6 in a lawsuit that pits Pacific Northwest salmon and steelhead interests against a Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposal to increase power marketing to southern California. The lawsuit is the most recent round in a series of conflicts over allocation of the Columbia and Snake rivers' water between power and fish. "Although many people have seen the adult fish ladders for salmon and steelhead at Bonneville Dam, fewer people appreciate the obstacles the dams present to young salmon and steelhead (smolts) moving downriver to the ocean," said Tim Wapato, Executive Director of the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission. Unless diverted away from the dams' turbines, juvenile salmon and steelhead may suffer extremely high mortalities (in the range of 70 to 90 percent) after passing eight dams. The lawsuit was filed due to concerns over the availability of Samish Indians an "endangered The Samish Indians of Washington state have recently petitioned Interior Secretary Donald Hodel to declare them an endangered species. Having been denied recognition as a tribe by the Bureau of Indians Affairs the Samish felt there was no other option. The Samish had officcial status until 1974 when the bureau ruled the tribe was no longer recognized and was not covered by federal court rulings that gave treaty Indians the right to catch at least half the harvestable salmon and steelhead migrating past their ancestral fishing grounds. The tribe feels it has met all the criteria necessary for tribal status. The BI A, however, says the Samish had not satisfied three of the seven criteria established in 1978 for the recognition process. Presently there are 570 Samish according to a recent tribal council survey. Most live in Anacortes area and some on the nearby Lummi reservation. Samish aboriginal land was located on Samish Island, now attached to the mainland northeast of Anacortes. The petition for endangered status was filed under the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, "Any species or subspecies of fish, wildlife, or plant, and any distinct population segment of any verte brate species that interbreeds when mature." The tribe has asked Hodel to review its application for tribal status and reconsider the final rejection. water to be spilled over the dams. "Spilling water is about the only way to keep fish out of the turbines at dams, such as Lower Monumental and Priest Rapids, without juvenile fish bypass systems," said Thatcher, the Wildlife Federation attorney. BPA's proposal would expand the capacity of transmission lines to the Los Angeles area by about 1 100 megawatts. (This is roughly comparable to baseload require ments of the city of Seattle.) "The added capacity means that much more competition for water at the dams and thus less spill for juvenile fish," said Thatcher. The lawsuit challenges BPA's decision to proceed with trans mission expansion without pre paring an environmental impact statement. "BPA is in an aggressive market expansion program, due to present electrical power surpluses and the market they are targeting and the reason for the transmission line is in California, Arizona and southern Nevada," said Thatcher. "Fewer than ten years ago, however, BPA was forecasting power shortages." "Each year for at least the past decade, Indian tribes and state and federal fish and wildlife agencies have sat down with the Bonneville Power Administration and the Corps of Engineers to develop juvenile salmon and steelhead pass age plans," said Wapato. "The fisheries interests, however, have yet to get agreement from BPA and the Corps on the amount of water to be spilled for fish protection. Mechanical bypass systems would solve some of those problems, yet not all the dams have them. Lower Monumental, Ice Harbor and The Dalles dams for example, are not equipped with those devices, so spilling large volumes of water is essential at these dams. More power sales to California mean less water for salmon and steelhead survival." Eye care covered Court Notices- Older Oregonians have more eye care choices now because Medicare coverage includes optometric ser vices. Under the revised law, which took effect April 1, Medicare will pay eye health care services provid ed by optometrists. Because optometrists are readily available throughout central Oregon, the Central Oregon Optometic Society believes the changes will result in better eye care for senior citizens. Services covered by Medicare include the eye health part of an eye examination when the patient has a symptom or complaint; treatment for eye diseases; and those who have had cataract sur gery, payment of glasses or contact lenses. Optometrists hold the doctor of optometry (O.D.) degree. They are primary health care providers who examine the eyes and vision systems; diagnose eye disease and vision problems; and provide treat ment in the form of prescription glasses, contact lenses, vision therapy and low-vision aids.
