Transmission rate increases of 26 percent to 44 percent would be passed directly to industrial and residential consumers. On May 23, the White House fiscal 2018 budget included a cryptic entry for the sale of the Bonneville Power Administration's transmission assets. The proposed revenues from the sale are only 80 percent of the value of the assets being sold. This raises the question of why these valuable assets should be sold at a discount — and who would get the benefit of the discounted price. If the sale goes through, it also will raise novel regulatory issues. In the most likely scenario, the proposed sale could increase transmission rates by 44 percent. In a less likely scenario, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission might be persuaded to reduce the assessed value of the transmission assets to the proposed sale price, since the Trump administration proposes to sell the transmission system at a loss.

  • From the Beginning
    3 From the beginning Two centuries ago, many communities in the United States had newspapers, but none were in the Pacific Northwest territories of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. One century ago the number of newspapers in the region might easily have topped 750. Today, depending on how you count, the number is somewhere south of a third as many. As in most industries, the less stable publications didn©t last long, or merged with stronger competitors. Most newspapers that ever have published in the Northwest lasted only a few years ± no more than five. A relative handful still publish. Still, the talk about newspapers in the new millennium has become notably dire. As we mention working on this book to people in the business, a common refrain has been: ªYou©re not saying, let©s do this before the newspapers are all gone ¼ are you?º Well, no. That would be a long wait. Some newspapers in fact are in tough shape, but by no means all. Some have remained quite stable. Some even have expanded. Little noted but true: The Northwest has in this new century seen the launching of some new titles. Change really has been the constant. Early history ± launching The very first lasting and stable settlement in the Northwest, at what is now Astoria (founded in 1811), didn©t quickly generate a newspaper. The economy wouldn©t support it, since for decades after its founding Astoria was a one-shop stop, a single-company operation (under first American, then British, then American control again). Its first post office (a prerequisite for newspapering) was set up in 1847, but it was a couple more decades before a newspaper appeared there.

  • Small Donor Elections Letter to the Editor Guide
    Small Donor Elections Letter to the Editor Guide Tips before you get started: ● Be respectful ● Be personal - talk about why money in politics matters to you personally. Do you feel like corporations and developers have too much influence in your community? Do you feel like your representatives listen to their donors more than their constituents like you? Do you feel like good candidates don’t have the resources to run for office? ● Be direct - keep your letter brief and to the point, and where appropriate, mention your legislator by name ● Be timely - when possible, submit a letter that directly responds to or builds on another recent article or current event. ● Know where you are submitting - different news outlets have different word count guidelines. How to write a Letter to the Editor (LTE): 1. Always start off by telling a short “story of self” (one to two sentences) that connects you to a specific issue or value, so that folks know who you are and why you’re writing. a. Example: I grew up in Oregon and I’ve noticed that over the past decade, our elected officials have become out of touch and listen more to their wealthy donors than they do to their constituents like me. 2. Explain the problem in more detail, or talk about the consequences of the problem. a. Example: While wealthy donors, like landlords and real estate developers, have been using their campaign contributions and influence to block rent stabilization policies in Salem, people in my community are being evicted from their homes. 3. Explain your solution and/or opinion about the solution.
