Improvement started by Utah Power and Light Company
Late last week Utah Power and Light Company began an expansion and improvement program costing about 83137500. The project includes a new reservoir at the hydroelectric plant, a semiautomatic control system, voltage changes on primary lines, and removal of lines from Main Street. Eleven workers will build a small reservoir, with a shift to partial automation and heavier copper for lines. A fourth distribution line will be added, reducing line losses and stabilizing supply. The work, supervised by JC Anderson, moves power lines to block centers and enables White Way lighting, with most labor done locally and some expert tasks contracted.
