"Pacific Gas and Electric Gomalong with the proposal of two
California congr: James B.
Utt and Charles S. Gubser, for a
clause in the new Trinity River
Project Bill which would allow
the federal government to take
over the power facilitics after the
company builds them. ee
The congressmen introduced
identical bills “in the House. The
measure specifies that the federal
government maytake over the
Trinity power facilities constructed by the company, at their depreciated cost, any ‘time after the
proposed San. Luis Project begins
operation or -after July -1,1967,
whichever is earlier, . 4
PG&E Executive Vice President
Robert H. Gerdes said the comPany accepts the compromise provision “in the hope of ending this
‘controversy and getting the Trinity power facilities built and in
service.”
Secretary of the Interior Fred
A. Seaton found: that the greatest
payers. would result from company construction and operation
of the Trinity power facilities
under a 50-year license. The new
recapture provision wouldy allow.
the government to take over the
‘power facilities at an early date
should Congress so desire.
Gerdes declared thatthe joint
development program, which Secretary Seaton has recommended
to Congress, will immediately
save*the federal treasury approximately $60,000,000. in construction costs. It also will provide
$175,000,000 more net revenue to
the Central . Valley Project and
$145,000,000 in additional taxes
which will be ‘paid to federal,
state and local treasuries, based
on a 50-year contract. None of
these. $320,000,000. benefits would
be available under all-federal construction.
