Other possible customers for the purchase of interim power, including preference customers, were canvassed. These included: Arizona Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. (AEPCO); Imperial Irrigation District (HD); El Paso Electric Company; R. W. Beck and Associates; Plains Electric G & T Cooperative, Inc.; and the Colorado River Commission of Nevada. Because the availability of power and energy from the Navajo Project is contingent upon the operation of the generating units and the associated transmission system, the purchasers were required to provide reserves. Therefore, drafts of the contracts for interim sale were submitted to each preference customer having its own generation or an alternate source of power to provide such reserves, and which was accessible to adequate transmission network capable of delivering the power. The preference customers in this category were Los Angeles, Salt River, Imperial Irrigation District, Plains Electric, and AEPCO (a member of Plaintiff Arizona Power Pooling Association). Except for LADWP, HD, and SRP, none of the above preference customers indicated positive interest in the proposal for the interim purchase of the United States entitlement. AEPCO did not respond at all. HD responded that it would be interested if economical and practical transmission arrangements could be developed, but the problems involved in working out such arrangements within the necessary time frame were insurmountable. Because of the lack of response, except from the participants and SCE, a concerted effort was made to obtain sale contracts with the participants and with Southern California Edison Company. The negotiations of the contracts for interim use of United States entitlement continued among representatives of APS, LADWP, NPC, SRP, SCE, TG&E, and USBR. The form of contract which was agreed upon by all representatives was prepared and distributed by letter dated October 2, 1969. The contract, in essentially the same form, was executed shortly thereafter by the purchasers. Each purchaser executed a separate contract with the United States. All of the contracts were then executed on behalf of the United States in December 1969, effective as of September 30, 1969.
