Divergent Data on
Power Plant Effect

Oficials Of Potomac Electric
Power Co. conferred today with
the staff of the District Engi-
neer offlce to compare divergent
engineering data on the effect
that Pepco's proposed new power
plant on the Potomac River
would have on the Washington
water supply.
The morning meeting, at Dis
trict Engineer headquarters at
the Mcmillan Filtration Plant.
was called at the request Of
Pepco.
Closeted were 1t. Col. John
C. Mattina, executive officer. his
corps and engineers staff:
Robert w. Wilson. a vice rresi-
dent Of Pepco. and the COM
pany's mechanical engineer, L.
w. Cadwallader.
First Of Series
The officials later issued this
Joint statement:
"This was the first Of q series
Iof conferences to explore specific
data on the proposed power plant
and the effects of this plant with
respect to the requirements and
responsibilities Of the Washing
ton District Engineer Office"
The District Engineer under
law has the responsibility Of pro-
|viding a safe and adequate water
|sunplv for the Nations Capital.
Preliminary findings Of the
office are said to indicate that
the proposed $40 million. 600.-
900 kilowatc station seven miles
,upriver from the Great Falls
water intakes poses Q possible
threat TO Washington's water
supply.
AS disclosed In The Star yes
terday. the engineers have re-
ported that the plants use Of
Potomac waters could raise the
river temperature by 10 or IS
degrees. This in turn would In
crease the growth of harmful
bacteria and Of aquatic plant
life that would give the drinking
water a bad flavor.
Conclusions Disputed
Pepco disputes the conclusions
reached by the District engineer,
and emphasizes it has no inten-
ton Of endangering the water
supply.
Both Col. Mattina and Mr..
Wilson stressed that the meet
|ings viii provide means for a
mutual exchange Of information.
Among the data will be spe-.
lcific plans prepared for the
power plant. down to a unit-by-
unit analysis. The Engineer
Corps has not yet been given
this opportunity by Pepco. which
announced the proposed plant
two weeks ago.

application to build the install
lation Isl scheduled for next
Wednesday before the Loudoun

.peals. Mr.. Wilson said the ex-
Iploratory discussions between
+Pepco and Army engineers win
not interfere with the coming
case.
Atmosphere Friendly
One participant described the
session as a normal profession
al discussion" The atmosphere
was said to be friendly. with the
Engineer Corps apparently not
miffed over PEPCO's failure to
supply at least token notice of
its power plant plans.
Indications are that until the
present conferences are con-
cluded the District Engineer will
take no official stand for or
against the plant. Normal rou-
tine in such matters is for the
District Engineer to make rec
concentrations to the ONCE Of
the Chief Of Army Engineers,
and for the latter office to ap-
prove or reject.
Col. Mattina attended today's
session as the Engineer Districts
top man, in the absence Of Col.
Ray Adams who was out Of
town.
