<:; C1 .- C', C: ~ - 19 - report up to January 1, 1942. They waro also as'ced to give the capC\ci- ties as of January 1, 1942 and the oxpocted additions to capacity up to January 1, 1946. Table 9 gives a list of the various systems included in Colorado, Wyoming, and Western Nebraska, togethor with the dependable capacity, reserve capacity, the net assured capacity, th0 1941 peak in kilowatts, and the 1941 load in kilowutt-hours. It will be noted that the d,?pendable c<;\pacity is now 257,521 kilowatts, and that tho reserve capacity is 38,282 kilowatts, leaving a net assured capacity of 219,239 kilov~tts as tho system is now operating. In the entiro aroa all the systems ar@ interconnocted with the oxception of the Sterling-Brush system of the Public Service Company of Colorado, City, of Fort Collins, and City of Longmont, Colorado, and City of Alliance, Nebraska. The interconnection of.the first three with tho present interconnected system is comparatively simple of acoomplish- ment. The oonn0ction of Alliance with the systo" will ontail the build- ing of not to exc~ed 15 milos of transmission linos. If all four were interconn0cted, it would incrsase th0 net assurod capacity by 9,282 kilo- watts, bringing the tot~l not ~ssured oapacity up to 228,521, The 1941 simult"neous pe"k on the systom is 180,479 kilowatts. The new munitions plant "t Denvur is not taking its full demand as yet from the system, and it' is somowh~t problematical just what that full demand vnll be, but a conservativo osti~~te is that it will increase about 4,000 kilowatts above its present demand, Prosuming that the in- terconnaction is m"de vnth the systems of Sterling-Brush, Fort Collins, Longmont, and Alliance, subtracting from th0 net assured capacity of 228,521 kilowatts the actual peak of 19h1 and the additional capacity
