Total repay- ment received through fiscal year 1983 amounts to nearly $195 million, which is about 23 percent of the $858 million Plant-in-Servlce and more than 4 percent of the $4112 billion projected total reimbursable Federal investment in the authorized storage units and participating projects, In additon to the amount appiied io repayment of the reimbursable investment, the project earned revenues sufficient to pay all operating costs, replacement costs, and current reimbursable interest costs. Operating costs of participating projects which have been turned over to the Water Conservancy Districts for operation were paid by the respective Conservancy Districts. More than 18 percent of the projected Federal investment was in service as of the end of the fiscal year. Power sales produced nearly 97 percent of the net revenues during fisc a) year 1983. All of these power revenues were applied toward the power investment in the storage units and participating projects About one-third of the present power investment and nearly 12 percent of the estimated ultimate power invest- ment have now been repaid The nearly $49 million repaid by power revenues in fiscal year 1983 is a great improvement over the situation in fiscal year 1982 and 1981 Through fiscal year 1983, revenues from the sale of municipal and industrial water from Glen Canyon and Navajo Reservoirs have returned $7.2 million toward repayment of the M&I investment in the storage units. This amount is nearly 97 percent of the $7.5 million investment to date. During fiscal year 1983, more than a quarter of a million dollars was paid by irrigators on 10 participating projects. Through fiscal year 1983, these irrigators have returned nearly $3.25 million in repayment revenues.
