The Russell opinion, issued by Solicitor Charles Russell, urges the Federal Power Commission to value power properties only at legitimate construction costs. It argues against overhead allowances and could erase millions in unofficial valuations, affecting government purchases and consumer rates. The opinion notes no universal rule, but cites two Insull Cumberland River projects facing a $500,000 valuation disallowance.
