It contains four generating units having a total capacity of <br />100,000 kw, Two of these units belong to the District, The United <br />States continued the use of District units 3 and 4, and as provided <br />in the supplemental contract of July 19, 1943, credited the District <br />with $475.00 per day for each unit, to be applied on the amortiza- <br />tion of the District's portion of the cost of the entire power plant. <br />A second 161-kv transmission line from Parker Dam to Phoenix <br />was completed and placed in service on December 13, 1945. Some <br />Boulder energy purchased from the Southern California Edison <br />Company, Limited. and the City of Los Angeles, and transmitted <br />over the District's system to Parker power plant is being delivered <br />to Salt River Valley Water Users' Association over this line. <br />Studies and surveys were made of a proposed 230-kv tie line <br />between the District's transmission line at Gene and a bank of <br />transformers at Parker Dam, A contract for these transformers <br />has been awarded, The present 69.kv tie line with a transformer <br />capacity of 33,000 kva is inadequate to effectively interchange <br />energy. <br />Energy transmitted by the Parker system during the tiscal year <br />ending June 30, 1946 is shown in the following operating summary: <br /> <br />KWH. <br /> <br />\ <br /> <br />f;ro".. energy genf'r:tled at Parker Darn... <br />Energy pureha~f'd <br /> <br />693.76;,000 <br />...., 69.2101,010 <br /> <br />_To!aLgeneraLe(Lalld_purdla.<;eJ ~_~,_.~762.9i8,OlO-- - - "- - - ~- - <br /> <br />Ellergy snld m. <br />Energy fnr '-lalir'll It~l> <br />J.,_,,,<;('<; in !:-yslem <br /> <br />....695.660..'6; <br />l.ORO,OOn <br />.. , 66.237.646 <br /> <br />Tolal nu.. <br /> <br />.. ............762.C)7H,OIO <br /> <br />II <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />~ <br />
