Arizona power plan aims for two Colorado River dams
Five Arizona Power Authority commissioners voted to seek federal permission to build two large Colorado River dams with a projected cost of at least 300 million dollars. The move, disclosed at a state press conference, drew little public enthusiasm and prompted questions about who will pay, who can use the power, and how transmission costs compare with local generation.

They estimate about 24 billion dollars annually flow to consumer pockets, supporting demand despite a postwar recession, and accounting for roughly one third of the nation’s food bill. The underpinning appears to have kept durable goods and services buying steady while overall spending shows resilience in essential items.
