OSTI ID:6420505
Congress enacted the Bonneville Project Act in 1937, creating the Bonneville Power Administration to market and transmit the power produced by Bonneville Dam on the Columbia River. Since then, Congress has directed BPA to sell at wholesale the power produced at a total of 30 federal dams in the Pacific Northwest, and to acquire conservation and non-federal generating resources sufficient to meet the needs of BPA's customer utilities. The dams and the electrical system are known as the Federal Columbia River Power System. Bonneville sells wholesale power to public and private utilities, rural cooperatives, large industries, and several federal agencies. BPA also sells or exchanges power with utilities in California. BPA uses revenues from the sale of power and transmission services to recover its own expenses, to repay the federal investment in the power system, and to repay the non-federal investment in generating capability it has acquired. BPA pays for operation and maintenance expenses at the federal dams and at non-federal power plants. It also provides funds for irrigation works and for fish and wildlife projects. This annual report highlights: financial data, marketing, construction, and public opinion.
