It appears that the remainder of the outlet works conduit and the <br /> <br /> <br />stilling basin will be completed early next year, as scheduled. Work is <br /> <br /> <br />also progressing well on excavation of the spillway and the cutoff trench <br /> <br /> <br />for the dam. <br /> <br />The 230,OOO-volt steel tower transmission line from Salida to Midway, <br /> <br /> <br />Colorado, is proceeding on schedule and will be completed early in 1968. <br /> <br /> <br />This line will be operated at 115 kv until the Midway Substation". just <br /> <br /> <br />south of Colorado Springs, is completed. <br /> <br />The Midway SUbstation and the Rifle Substation will be completed about <br />the same time later in 1968 and will provide two additional ties with <br />Public Service Company of Colorado. These interconnections will be <br />needed to meet the increasing loads in Colorado that are to be supplied <br />from Blue Mesa and Morrow Point. <br /> <br /> <br />Design is proceeding on the Series Capacitor Stations to be constructed <br /> <br />on the two 345,OOO-volt high capacity lines from Glen Canyon to Pinnacle <br />Peak near Phoenix, Arizona. We are working closely with Arizona PUblic <br />Service Company on a plan that calls for financial participation by the <br />Company in lieu of separate construction of similar facilities on its <br />own line. These stations will be completed in 1970 when they will be <br />needed to provide system stability and regulate flows over the high- <br />voltage interconnected system in Arizona. <br /> <br /> <br />~;lDuring July two contracts were awarded for constructing access roads <br /> <br />needed for maintaining the Curecanti-Shiprock 230-kv transmission line, <br /> <br />3 <br />
