<br />tional releases made in anticipatIOn of later spills were also utilized
<br />in the generation of en~rgy.

<br />
<br />POWER M4-RKET AREA AND REQUIREMENTS
<br />
<br />The Federal Power Cl>mmission is currently making a power market
<br />survey for the Colora<!o River storage project, The market area
<br />covered by the survey is shown on the map on the following page,
<br />It is estimated that in addition to capacity and generation from
<br />existing and scheduled jllans in the mnrket area, not including sched-
<br />uled plants of the Colorado River storage pl'oiect, about 3,659,000
<br />kilowatts of ~enerating:capacity and 14,313 million kilowatt-hours of
<br />generation will be needed by 1970 to meet new power requirements
<br />throughout the market area. The estimated additional requirements
<br />for 1970 and 1980 are summarized helow,
