Discussion on “power development on the Colorado River and its relation to irrigation and flood control”

J. B. Fisken: One thought occurred to me when I read the paper and that is that we now have connection over the Idaho-Montana line through to Seattle, Tacoma, and I don´t know just how far south, with a break between Tacoma and Portland, and some breaks in Oregon; and I don´t think it takes any very great imagination to visualize the time when our plants in Eastern Washington will run in synchronism with plants on the Colorado River. It will not in any sense be transmission from Eastern Washington to Southern California, but it will be simply an interchange of current, our plants furnishing the load as required on the northern end and meeting the western Washington plants, the Oregon plants and so forth.
