performed quite well."

best in the high jump with a
leap of 64" and went 41'8" in

Myers whose 52.6 clocking in
the 400 meters equaled the
season's best time in the
district. Helix's John Terjeson
is co-holder of the mark for the
400.
The Fillies were paced by
Maureen Healy who took first
in the high jump, second in the
400 and joined Kellie Ham
mond, Geri Grieb and Laurie
Harrison to place second in
the 400 relay.

BRA AND CONSERVATION
As the region's largest wholesaler of electric energy, the Bonneville
Power Administration plays a major role in the region's energy pic
ture. Conservation has become an important part of this picture but
it must become an even larger part. What role should BPA play in
conservation?
The Picture Now
BPA now sells firm power to 138 customers. For most of these BPA is
the sole source of supply. However, current studies, based on critical
water years, indicate large deficits of firm energy for BPA customers
and all of our region for at least the next 10 years. This means that, if
we have water conditions similar to those of 1973-74 or 1976-77, there
may not be enough electricity to meet the demand.
What Should BPA Do?
For some years BPA has provided guidance and assistance in conser
vation to Northwest utilities and consumers. This program has been
beneficial but it will not assure attainment of desired energy conser
vation goals. We need to do more and intend to do so. There are many
options to be considered such as: grants or loans for insulation and
weatherization, improved efficiencies in commercial and industrial
uses and in home appliances; rate incentives and penalties; power
allocations; and use of waste heat for cogenef ation.
Furthermore, new generating resources are more costly than the
resources which the region currently uses. BPA and many others feel
that in order to assure an adequate energy supply for the region and
to hold down accelerating energy costs, the region must rely increas
ingly upon conservation.
We Want Your Suggestions
If you have ideas concerning BPA conservation policy, we would like
to hear from you in writing by May 15, 1978. This summer, after
assessing your recommendations and analyzing the alternatives,
BPA will announce a proposed conservation policy. We will then
conduct public comment forums to hear from you again.
Send your written recommendations to the Public Involvement Coor
dinator, Bonneville Power Administration, PO. Box 12999, Portland,
Oregon 97212. For further information, write to the above address or
call 503-234-3361, Ext. 4715.
