Reports of Buds Dropping Received
Several home owners have
complained recently of camel
lia buds dropping, according
to Don Berry, Jackson county
horticulture agent.
There are several reasons
for such dropping, he noted.
Some varieties like "pink per
fection" have a tendency to
drop buds, and excessive cold
in winter will induce drop
ping, he said.

Camellia growers, he said,

Basin Accounts Bill Would Use
Power Revenues to Pay Projects
The basin accounts bill now
before Congress, if passed,
would authorize use of any
surplus power revenues from
the Talent project to help fi
nance future irrigation proj
ects in the Pacific Northwest,
according to local irrigation
district managers.
The bill nas been intro
duced into the House of Rep
resentatives as House Bill
'3510, LaSelle Coles, Ochoco
irrigation district manager,
Prineville, and first vice pres
ident of the National Recla
mation association, reported.
The bill would not affect ir
rigation projects or multiple
use projects now under con
tract, it was explained. How
ever, the basin accounts sys
tem would take the power
reVenue after it pays off costs
of one project and use it to
help pay for other projects,
according to Walter Hoffbuhr,
Talent Irrigation district man
ager. It would not help the Tal
ent project since one of its
uses, power, will help pay the
costs x)f the project, he ex
plained. The basin accounts
system takes over payments
of project costs after the 50th
year..
The bill would help the Illi
nois Valley project which, if
approved, is expected to have
a repayment period of 269
years.
"This thing has gotten to
the point unless you get a
multiple purpose project it is
not feasible for irrigation to
pay off the costs of the proj
ect," Hoffbuhr said. "For in
stance, the $12 million alone
in irrigation costs in this proj
ect would make it prohibitive
for water users to pay it off
through the greatly increased
rates which would be neces
sary." "Another feature of this bill
is that it makes it more eco
nomical to put land under ir
rigation," Hoffbuhr said.
"Now we have surplus pro
duction, but with the present
rate of population increase in
50 years we will be a little
short of land probably. The
more land we can get into
production now the better off
we will be."
The basin accounts bill pro
vides for a pool of power rev
enues in the Pacific North
west. The Pacific Northwest
account would be credited at
least once a year with all the
revenues from a power oper
ations pool.
Once a year the capital
costs of a project for power
and irrigation are deducted
from the power revenues, plus
the interest on the unamor
tized balances of the commer
cial power allocations. The
net revenues then are ap
plied first to the payment of
capital costs of a project and

the unamortized balances of
the commercial power alloca
tions. However, irrigation would
be benefited only ; when the
payments exceed a 50-year
period. It does not increase
power rate schedules, accord
ing to the bill's provisions.
Authorized by Congress
Each project still has to be
authorized by Congress before
it could become eligible under
the basin accounts system, ac
cording to the terms of the
bill.
