Columbia Basin Electric Cooperative, Inc., Heppner,
Oregon wishes to thank the member-owners for coop
eration in curtailment of use during the past few
months to help in the energy shortage picture we
have faced.
The stream flow and reservoir situation has improved
greatly in the past few weeks to encourage us as to
the situation.
The immediate outlook is good, if operating condi
tions remain favorable.
The long range look shows some real problems in hav
ing resources coming on line to meet loads in any
nature of critical weather conditions.
You can continue to help:
Avoid wasteful use of electric power.
Contact your legislators to request:
1. BPA be given authority to sell revenue bonds,
especially for transmission facilities.
2. Request that delay actions due to actions of
special interest groups be minimized in planning
for generation projects.
3. That governmental procedures involved in
completion of nuclear projects be changed to cut
the total time required to plan and construct re
duced from the current 10 to 12 years to half that
amount.
