<br />the power IS worth.
<br />The rebellion was started by Rep. Barbara Boxer
<br />CD-Cahf.l. whose dis:nct Includes part of San
<br />Francisco and ~lann County and who Wanted the

<br />Udall CD.Anz.), who usually sides with enVIron.

<br />power f::om Hoover Dam, too, as does Nevada. and
<br />their share of the Hoover power 'Wlll increase
