Power Report Adopted By Legislative Council
The Vermont legislative council on Tuesday voted to adopt the Special Canadian Power Study Committee report 10 to 4. Debate centered on the panel’s recommendation to revoke the certificate of general good of the Vermont New England Power Co. and allow the Public Service Board broader power to buy and distribute power. Several senators criticized bias and arbitrariness while others urged accepting the report to seek lower rates. The session also noted Pownal eyesore concerns amid junkyard cleanup efforts and calls to strengthen local controls on dumps and scenery preservation to bolster industry and tourism.
