A field hearing at Helena, Montana was held in response to complaints that the Bonneville Power Authority (BPA) has become increasingly insensitive to regional needs in the areas of conservation and regional planning and in going beyond its role of distributing federal power. BPA's decision to stop acquiring alternative energy resources and its inability to forecast demand have intensified criticism in recent months. The committee heard testimony by 23 witnesses from BPA, area power companies, consumers, and other interest groups. Additional comments and material and an appendix with submissions from BPA follow the testimony. (DCK)
