Plant Due Lines
- The Dalles U.R) A spokes
man for Bonneville Power ad
ministration said today that
lines to carry power from The
Dalles dam to a proposed alumi
num plant here will be under
construction within a short time
and will be completed by the
August, 1958, deadline.
Byron Price, assistant admin
istrator for BPA, said Harvey
Machine company of Torrance,
Calif., which holds a license to
build the aluminum plant, had
been granted a 90-day extension
to its deadline for starting con
struction. Harvey had been

multi-million dollar facility
about May 1. The extension to
August 1 was granted because

from Big Eddy switching station
to the Harvey site near The
Dalles.
