Participants would be Southern California <br /> <br />Edison Company, Arizona Public Service Company, and Silll Diego Gas & <br /> <br />Electric Company. <br /> <br />The construction schedule for this plilllt has not been <br /> <br />announced. <br /> <br />A 1,OOO-mw plant is nearing construction in the vicinity of Fruitland, <br /> <br />New Mexico, north of the San Juan River, utilizing coal from a strip <br /> <br />mine. Participilllts will be Tucson Gas and Electric CompilllY and Public <br /> <br />Service CompilllY of New Mexico. <br /> <br />The 2,300-mw Navajo Generating Station is under construction near Page, <br /> <br />Arizona. Participilllts are Salt River Project, Los Angeles Department <br /> <br />of Water and Power, Arizona Public Service Company, Nevada Power Company, <br /> <br />Tucson Gas and Electric Company, and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. The <br /> <br />first 750-mw unit of this plant is scheduled to go on line in June 1974, <br /> <br />the second in 1975, and the third in 1976. <br /> <br />38 <br />
