Kerr Dams Benefoctor

private power companies paying taxes and public
dams not tax rolls
Our answer here is that Hungry Horse Dam is not
on tax rolls but Anaconda Aluminium Co., a result
of Hungry Horse Dam is paying $78,941.24 in taxes
for 1856 to Flathead county.
Then we wonder if Montana Power Co., an aggres-
sive, efficient and able utility, isn't benefittng from
Hungry Horse Dam much anyone
Kerr Dam at the foot of Flathead lake is a fine
Montana asset However, the level of Flathead lake,
with its ring of homes, cannot be altered much
without economic loss Montana Power Co. storage
production capacity Kerr is limited to Fathead lake
storage below the cottage line and actually could
only part of the spring flood waters of the Fathead
river forks.
In fact Flathead lake could fill to allowable capac-
ity during May and June without drop of water from
the Fatheads South Fork.
Prior to 1850, the forks of the Fathead provided
much water than Kerr Dam could utilize in its
powerhouse during spring months "a lot the
spllway unused) and then there water shortage
during fall and winter months.
Building the big dam on the South Fork has GER
ainly changed this picture, and obviously made pos
sble those generators at Kerr Dam. There is
more water for Kerr in winter
Hungry Horse Dam built with public funds
Montana Power Co. is private business and so is the
Hungry Horse News
Just exactly how much money is Montana Power
Co. paying for water stored behind Hungry Horse
Dam which if there dam would not be bene-
fitting them.
You know think the American taxpayers are sub
sldlzing Montana Power Co., but they won't admit it.
