gram costin the rural areas

The program states there
should be an average
annual occupancy rate of
at least 80%. The annual
occupancy for the Jack
County Hospital was 33%in
1976. There will be a
requirement of at least 500
deliveries annually in or
near an SMSA with a
population of 100000. 94.5%
of the hospitals do not meet
this requirement.
A megavoltage radiation
therapy unit should serve at
least 450 cancer cases per
year and hospitals with less
than 100 beds can not meet
this requirement. None of
the hospitals questioned
have a computerized tomo-
graphic scanner and can
not obtain one under the
program.1
Others guidelines inclu-
ded in the program are not
met by the local hospital
and with the program HEW
has designed there will be

It saved TP&L customers more
than $81 million last year.
Yes, the price of electricity
supplied by Texas Power &
Light Company has gone up in
recent years, but lignite coal
has kept the increase from
being much greater.
Fpr many years, natural gas
was the only fuel used to
produce electricity at TP&L
generating plants. It was
cheap and plentiful. Then, in
the 1960's-, the price of gas
began to rise drastically and
supplies became uncertain.
TP&L and two affiliated
companies began a massive
program to reduce their
dependency on gas by buildi ng
plants which use lower-cost
lignite coal as fuel.
Since 1971, five lignite-fueled
generating units have been

placed in operation. In 1976,
about one-third of the
electricity supplied by TP&L
was produced with lignite. For
the average residential
customer who used 10,666
kilowatt-hours of electricity
during the year this meant a
saving of more than $46.00.
Today, more lignite-fueled
plants are under construction
and being planned. The high
cost of building these plants
and other effects of inflation
will cause the base price of
electricity to continue to rise,
but as TP&L produces more
electricity with lignite and less
with gas the saving will be
passed on to TP&L customers.
