SPEAKING AT A SACRAMENTO SUBSTATION THE GOVERNOR OUTLINED HIS PLAN FOR THE NEW POWER PLANT, JUST ONE OF THIRTEEN IN HIS PROPOSED EXPANSION. (SOT- "It is supported by the Sierra Club and the business community and it will provide reliable energy to the part of the state which is now too dependent on outside power.") (SOT- MOS "It's a good start, but I've heard estimates that we're gonna be 3000 megawatts short this summer and unless we start building some crash course and building some major power plants, we are gonna be in trouble and I just want to see him make some decisions and be a leader for once.")
