Next, on page 7, is our power operations
and power marketing situation. First we have
water to be concerned about and we also have
to keep a close eye on revenues for project
repayment. The power needs in the area that
can be served from CRSP has outstripped the
capability, so for all practical purposes we
are fully marketed. We do have to, in order
to market our firm capacity, at times purchase
energy to fill in the gaps in actual generation
so we are moving into that point in time where
we will be making energy purchases for the two
divisions; the power is marketed in the north
and in the south under somewhat different cri-
teria. This chart shows you the total amount
of energy required; how much of it in the blue
center is being provided from storage Project
generation, the red border is diagramatic of
the amounts that will be purchased, and then
the five segments identify the northern division
portion and the southern division portion and
the amount set aside for these deficiencies.

To compare the capability of the storage
Project with the loads we have prepared this
bar chart. The bars are alternately summer and
winter by years. The short bars are the winter.
We have power to sell in the winter time but we
are pretty fully marketed in the summer time.
The lower black line is the capability of our
power system to meet loads with reserves. We
have reserves set aside. The black lines show
the capability reflecting these reserves. The
yellow lines are the amount of power requested
that we could serve if we had capability. The
red mark is the amount that could be imported
from other systems perhaps to meet these loads.
I don't want to belabor you with a lot of num-
bers. There are within the outlines here
significant figures.

This will give you an impression of our
