Utility Chief Sets Conditions For Hoff's Canadian Power Plan

Albert A. Cree, chairman and CEO of Central Vermont Public Service, spoke at Rutland Lions Club outlining that Vermont seeks the lowest cost, reliable power. He noted the planned 1970 nuclear plant and possible 2,000,000 kilowatts from Labrador Canada, warning that foreign control and cost reliability complicate imports. He argued any Labrador power must be delivered under 4 mills per kWh and free of public funds or tax advantages, to ensure fair cost comparisons.
