Show VII-4 UPDATING THE HOOVER DAM DOCUMENTS All of the comments submitted which relate to my exercise of this option have been carefully reviewed, and in my judgment the contents of Lake Powell and Lake Mead do not warrant termination of the Filling Criteria at this time. The major objection expressed by Upper Basin interests to continuing the Filling Criteria has been the use of Colorado River Storage Project (CRSP) generated energy to replace Hoover deficiencies and the resultant impact upon the Upper Colorado River Basin Fund. Under current water and power marketing conditions, all CRSP generation is required to meet firm energy obligation of the United States and all energy needed to satisfy Hoover deficiencies must be purchased. Except for minor variations, the operating condition is expected to continue. The net result is that increased revenues will accrue to the Upper Colorado River Basin Fund from power sales, and money expended from that fund to replace Hoover deficiencies will be reimbursed from the Colorado River Development Fund pursuant to Section 502, Public Law 90-537. In accordance with the provisions of the Filling Criteria, the modification thereof dated May 11, 1964, and consistent with said Section 502, the Upper Colorado River Basin Fund will not be reimbursed for costs incurred in connection with impairment of capacity and energy resulting from the drawdown of Lake Mead below elevation 1,123 feet incident to the attainment of minimum power pool in Lake Powell. Neither will there be reimbursement for energy furnished from CRSP generation utilized in meeting energy deficiencies and impairments in Hoover generation. I know of your vital interest in these matters. The efforts of you and your representatives have assisted us in making decisions which we believe are in the best interest of the entire Colorado River Basin. Sincerely yours, (Sgd) WALTER J. HICKEL Secretary of the Interior Hon. Stanley K. Hathaway Governor of Wyoming Cheyenne, Wyoming 82001 Enclosure |
