<div>No, simply incurring relicensing costs doesn't mean the PUC allows them to be imposed on ratepayers. These costs would be unreasonable for the power involved and could not be approved. This is why the PUCs have allowed the dam removal cost surcharges to
be imposed instead. It's why PacifiCorp favors removal too, though they want it delayed as long as possible.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Too bad all the alleged "greens" and tribal reps bought the PacifiCorp/Bush Administration lie that negotiating with them for the KBRA — rather than insisting that PC build the court-ordered fish ladders, whose nearly $400 million cost
could have cajoled PC to tear down the dams, which weren't worth that much; and rather than continue to pursue the required 401 Certification for the dams, which would have been very difficult for PC to obtain given the virtual impossibility of the water behind
the dams satisfying this provision of the Clean Water Act; and rather than enforcing the ESA biological opinion requirement of a minimum flow of 1,000 cfs at Iron Gate — would be the Klamath's panacea rather than its undoing, as we're seeing today with PC's
and the irrigators' ongoing water grab. Combine this folly with the underhandedness of many if not most of the people who negotiated in favor of the corporate-government deal and it's no wonder that today almost no one wants to step up to defend the beleaguered
Klamath. What a mess.<o:p></o:p></p>
