hike
border price of natural gas
would mean that Oregon con
sumers would be paying the
equivalent of $15-$16 per
barrel of oil a rate $3-$4
higher than Middle Eastern
oil. The proposed rate hike
was announced on Feb. 25 by
Jack Davis, Energy and
Transport Minister for British
Columbia.
The Oregon senators also
warned Secretary Vance they
would not like to see a repeat
performance of a State De
partment decision last year,
denying an offer by Canada to
sell natural gas to the North
west region at a lower rate
than that sold elsewhere in the
United States.
"That lower price was of
fered because 1) our region
has a uniquely heavy de
pendence upon Canadian gas
and, 2) the price of com
parable amounts of electric
energy is far below the
national average due to hydro
electric power," they told the
Secretary. "We estimate that
Northwest consumers paid $31
million as a direct result of
that decision. We urgently ask
for reconsideration of that
position by the State Depart
ment should the National
Energy Board in Canada
choose to make the same offer
of variable pricing this year.
We ask that you make your
position on these issues known
to us at the soonest possible
opportunity," they said.
