Hearings in Seattle and Washington, DC considered S. 1701 (identical to section 317 of H.R. 3363) relating to the Washington Public Power Supply System (WPPSS) No. 1, 2, and 3 units. The bill clarifies the Bonneville Power Administration's (BPA's) authority to seek alternative financing for construction and states the limitations for seeking public funds through appropriations or municipal bonds. Seventy witnesses presented the views of state officials, utilities, consumers, industry, and labor. Of particular concern were the possibilities of bankruptcy and unemployment for Washington State. The hearing record includes the text of S. 1701, the testimony, and additional material submitted for the record.
