<br /> <br />N <br />W <br />r..o <br />o <br /> <br />Sa cond, we have had several conferen ces with the Bureau reearding con- <br />tract drafts fer sale cf power tc the preference customers. We' are <br />seekinr contracts as uniform as pcssible for all customers in all ,of <br />the feur bureau rericns involved. We have submitted a detailed list <br />c,f the prcblems we believe shculd be cevered. We understand that the <br />Bureau has ncw ?repared drafts of contract lan[Uafe and in the next <br />several weeks we expect tc hold a series of meet'in[s with the Bureau <br />to iren cut any differences that may still exist. <br /> <br />Third, we have been workinE cn the fcrmaticn of a sinrle purche.sinE <br />a[ency te contract for the purchase cf power for all preference c'us- <br />tamers in the State of Utah. The Bureau has offered a substantial <br />concession in the matter of billin[ demands if this is dcne and en- <br />couraein[ proEress is beint: made.' <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />The fourth matter of immediate interest is that of continuanoe ef <br />CRBCP as an active, vif'crous crp-anization. With the e.pparent thouf'ht <br />that the majcr battles have been worn er lost, the problems ef finan- <br />cing are beccminr mcre difficult. We know of nothin[ that our oppon- <br />ents would desire more than to have our or[anizaticn dissolve. The <br />united front it has [resented in the marketing area has been a thorn <br />in their side which they would like to pet rid of. It has developed <br />considerable politice.l stature and its sUGgestions are not liEhtly <br />brushe<.l e.side by Coner'ess cr Federal A[encies. <br /> <br />Nh!'.;!: (;fce. -thi!. 6u.tulle. pl'.mu o{, C;:,fCP? <br /> <br />We shculd arain, make appearances before the appropriaticn committees <br />in th$ Confress in support of Bureau AIprqriaticns fer continued con- <br />struction of transmission lines. Until these lines are e.ll actually <br />built there is always the hazard that lack cf finances may prevent the <br />construction of some seEment. If this should happen then we are again <br />pretty much at the mercy of the private-utilities. At least one years <br />work is involved in the ne[otiation ant: ccmpletion of contracts fcr the <br />z,urchase of storage rroje'ct power. The combined experienoe and skill <br />of the Enrineerinf Committee of CRBCP should be available at all times <br />) in these nefctiaticns. <br /> <br />;, <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />,'i'. <br /> <br />j.. <br /> <br />
