I pool reservoirs will be held as high
as possible through the fall months.
¡ This must be done as some protection
against the critical situation that will
prevail if stream flows are not
brought up to normal or better by
general rains throughout the Colum
bia basin before freezing weather hits
the upper tributary country.
Almost regardless of the early fall
Í weather, steam plants will run heavily
during October and November. Other-

find the electric systems with reser

would cripple the region.
“Electric companies of the area
have had a high degree of success in
holding the line against price in
creases, but cannot absorb extra fuel
oil costs that will total more than
$8,000,000.00 in the season ahead,
even though average water conditions
prevail.” Trimble said.
“If stream flows in the Columbia
basin should fall below average for
the season, emergency fuel expense
in meeting the hydroelectric output
deficit may run close to $20,000,000.00
for the five private companies in the
western part of the Northwest power
pool. The magnitude of these costs
makes it imperative that the com
panies obtain quick relief from any
extraordinary fuel expense if their
credit is to be maintained and the
door kept open to obtain the large
amounts of additional capital required
by the growing public service needs of
the region." Trimble continued.
