NEW YORK POVER AUTHORITY .

The New York Power Authority was created when Governor Trankiin D. Roosevelt signed the Power Authority Act of 1931 which established a State authority to operate as a nonprofit, publ4-benefit utilits. The financing and construction of the generating and transmission facilit'es are accomplished without the use of State funding or taxes, and.conpleted projects are operated and maintained by revenues obtained by the sale of power. Tha goal,s of the New York Power Authority are to provide low-cost energy to the State's consumers, meet the energy challenges of today and tomorrow, and develop innovative, efficient sources of energy ~, while operating in the safest possible manner. .

The generation and transmissitn of~ electricity from the Power Authority's .

~

hydro, fossil, and nuc' ear stations, and imports from Canada provide one-c.hird of the electricity cousumed in Ne,w York SCate. As a wholesale power- supplier, . -

electricity is sold to the State's municipal _ electric systems and rural coopera-cives; public agencies in the New York City metropolitan area; and to th.e State's s'eveti major private utilitias for resale to cus. comers.without profit;and to ,

designated industri'es. Thus, the New York Pc wer Authority is the nation's largest non-Pederal public power organization,. .

~ ~ '

The Power Authority of fers a variety of training and educational ' activities .

to its employees. Programs include management, administrative skills, pro-

~

fessional development, ,and technica$-craft areas. The training +raff draigns

~ ~

pregrams to meet the requirements of the technical staf f, and acts as an in-house consultant to support co rpo ra te "goa'I s .' .- . . ..
