Governors back Dickey Lincoln plan with environmental concession
The New England Governors Conference unanimously endorsed the Dickey Lincoln hydroelectric project pending before Congress while adding amendments for an independent environmental impact study by the New England Regional Commission funded from existing resources. The six governors met at Boston's Parker House with Francis Sargent, Kenneth Curtis, Philip Noel, Thomas Salmon, Thomas Meskill, and Meldrim Thompson, who then left for New York to explore Onassis refinery prospects in New Hampshire.

New England governors seek energy price equalization plan
The six New England governors urged the Federal Energy Office to develop a plan within 30 days to equalize heating fuel and gasoline costs across the nation. Vermont Governor Salmon led the resolution, citing disproportionate energy prices in the region. He also won approval to release up to 175,000 for Northeast tourism promotion to help Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine recover from energy shortages and low snowfall, funded by reallocated bicentennial tourism funds.
