YOUR CHANCE TO HAVE A SAY ABOUT
POWER RATES!
The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) plans to raise its
wholesale power rates effective December 20, 1979 the first in
crease in 5 years.
By law, BPA's rates must produce enough revenue to meet its
costs. Considering how inflation and other factors have driven up
costs, it now looks as if we must have new wholesale rates that will
increase our revenues by an estimated 80 to 90 percent.
BPA Wholesale Rates and You
BPA does not sell power directly to the ultimate user except
for large industrial customers and a few Federal agencies. Rather, it
sells power at wholesale to utilities which, in turn, sell to home
owners and other end users.
The BPA wholesale rate increase will not necessarily increase
the rate you pay to your utility by the same percentage, because BPA
power costs are only part of a utility's total costs. Still, the BPA
wholesale rate increase will affect everybody's power bill.
Besides setting new wholesale rates that will produce enough
revenues for BPA to cover all its costs, we will be considering various
rate design concepts. And in setting our new rates, we will be taking
into consideration conservation, environmental protection, con
sumer understanding and acceptance, ease of administration, and
stability and continuity.
We Want to Hear From You
If you have ideas concerning future BPA wholesale power rates,
we would like to hear from you in writing by March 1. Sometime
within the next several months we will announce the times and
places for a series of public information meetings and comment
forums. Later we will also be asking for your ideas on a formula for
allocating electric energy available to BPA.
Send your written recommendations on rates to Public Involve
ment Coordinator, Bonneville Power Administration, EO. Box 12999,
Portland, Oregon 97212. For further information, write to the above
address or call 503-234-3361, Ext. 4715.
