Walter Meacham in a Tuesday morning telephone interview. We felt it allowed us to rewrite contract amounts up to 100 percent, if desired, he said. emphasizing it will leave the options open while the former contract, at a larger power capacity, tied Utah concerns into having to utilize the IPP plant whether rates were higher than other available sources or not. some cities who contract for power, such as Logan, were heightened by fears the IPP project could fold and the bill for already done construction still come due. Even if its not finished, THE NEW agreement would theoretically allow more expensive power to be "laid off to California indefinitely, he explained. The worst thing possible is that rates wont be that much higher, Mr. Meacham said of put into the ground into con- the power plant change, there wont be emphasizing that much significance compared to the total cost. HE NOTED that power rates at e having to increase from virtually every source due to in- flation but said concerns of theres $1.5 billion in bonding thats already taken place and he said of the Southern Utah facility. If we dont finish it, we get to pay the bill without any benefits. BOUNTIFULS CITY council, meanwhile, hasnt signed for approval of the downsizing and is still negotiating the issue, expected to come before the council within the next few weeks. Although the plant would be reduced to about half size, Mr. Meacham said its power share of will be about the old allocation. "Based on struction, owes? the load forecast for energy consumpiton, weve figured well meet our needs through about 1996, he added. trade-of- weve done ence. Its been a guessing game for city councils for years, trying to determine where best to obtain power, Mr. Meacham recounted, recalling about 15 years ago when the city had a chance to marry itself 100 percent to BOR power. At that time, though, the council consensus seemed to weight in favor of minimizing government power, deciding instead to buy half from UP&L. the right Those sources include about 20 percent from the Federal Bureau of Reclamation, Col- , orado Water Storage plant, some from the Utah Power and Ligh Hunter power plant. HE ADDED that downsizing also hasnt necessarily reduced the cost by half, with the higher cost already figured but city officials believe the possible in seeking other cheaper power sources more than pays for that differ- NOTING POWER consumption has reduced over the past few years, he indicated the city receives power from several sources. Weve tried to diversify, not end up with too many eggs in one basket. We think thing. f Agr THAT HAS cost the city since the when rates had to be adjusted upward, leading, to as well, to buying supplemental power from other sources. Thats resulted in half a million dollars higher power rates had all the mid-1970- s, . citys power come from the BOR. Mr. Meacham raises a con- cern others have echoed what if all the participants when we went with Hunter II, he continued. At that time , power rates saw a dramatic increase for Kaysville pow- er users. cant agree to the downsizing? If the plant is not built, if all the participants cant agree on downsizing or whatever, internal conflict could cause it not to be built. It takes 100 percent approval." WHILE emphasizing power bills to the city and eventually customers shouldn't be significantly higher after IPP power is on line, Mr. Meacham said "anytime you bring a new resource on line, the cost will be higher than those parked in the garage, he explained, using the comparison with an automobile. Over the long run, we will see rates to continue to rise, but I hope it will be less than CONTRARY TO what a lot of citizens believe about the Public Service Commission which we dont answer to, the fact still remains, utilities have to make their costs and show a margin or they dont operate. The option is higher rates or no power." The citys power arm, like other municipal units, doesnt operate under PSC jurisdiction as private firms, such as UP&L. Its believed that city power companies, overseen by elected city councils, can be kept in toe because those officials are retained or "fired by the people, not stockholders or some board of directors. |
