 Collection
Identifier: mss-038

Scope and Content Note

The Ross Papers document the years on the Federal Power Commission (1961-68) and International Joint Commission (1962-81). There are also materials relating to other matters including environmental, energy, diplomatic, and legal issues.

FEDERAL POWER COMMISSION: The FPC regulates the interstate aspects of electric power and natural gas industries. It was created in 1920 to administer the Federal Water Powers Act, and it has five full-time commissioners appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. The FPC was absorbed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in 1977. The FPC papers (1958-1969) consist of approximately 40 document boxes and were a gift from Ross in 1971.

The first nine boxes relate to the Northeast Power Failure of 1964 and the Northeast Blackout of November, 1965. Included are various reports from regional and advisory committees regarding utilities, related surveys, and memoranda from conferences.

There is a considerable body of material on the National Power Survey of 1964. Most of the materials relating to the Northeast Blackout of 1965 are transcripts and proceedings of hearings. There are also materials relating to the FPC's report to the President regarding the 1965 Blackout. The 1965 power failure involved 28 utilities in the U.S. and the Hydro-electric Power Commission of Ontario (HEPCO) which together make up the Canada-U.S. Eastern Interconnection (CANUSE).

Consolidated Edison's Project #2338, the "Storm King" Decision is documented in boxes 10-13. In March 1965, the FPC approved Consolidated Edison of New York's power project on the Hudson River known as the 'Storm King' project. Charles Ross was the only member to have a dissenting opinion in this case. His opinion was one of the first that favored environmental concerns over business interests. The U.S. Court of Appeals agreed with Ross and set aside the license for the project. The papers consist mostly of hearing proceedings, but there is also correspondence, reports, and news clippings.

Boxes 14 and 15 relate to the Northf d.e].d. Pump Project _#3J38.9. and #2485. This involved a joint application of the Connecticut Light and Power Company (CL&P), the Hartford Electric Light Company (HELCO) and the Western Massachusetts Electric Company (WMECO) for a license to construct and operate the proposed Northfield Mountain Pump Storage Project (#2485) on the east bank of the Connecticut River in the towns of Erving and Northfield, near Greenfield, Franklin County, Massachusetts. WMECO simultaneously filed an application for amendment of its existing license for the Turners Falls Hydro-electric development (Project #1889) to authorize raising of the Turner Falls reservoir to enable its use as the lower pool of the proposed pump storage project. Again, this material is mainly hearing proceedings and briefs.

Within the FPC papers, Boxes 16-18 document the International Joint Commission's (IJC) examination of the Champlain Waterway. The U.S. and Canadian governments requested an investigation into the practicality of constructing a deep waterway from the St. Lawrence River to the Hudson via Lake Champlain. The IJC studied the waterway for commercial navigation first in 1936 and then again in 1962. They assembled the International Waterway Board to look into the issue and provide studies. After the first consideration in 1936, it was decided to table the issue until after the St. Lawrence Seaway was completed. In the 1960s, it was found that commercial navigation was not economically feasable but that the area had great potential for recreational development. The papers on the Champlain Waterway consist of hearings and reports.

Boxes 19 and 28 relate to the Water Resources Council, established in 1965. Included are the Council's operations from 1966-1967. The Water Resources Legislation of 1965 called for the formation of a cabinet-level water council made up of the Secretaries of the Interior, Army Corps of Engineers, Health Education and Welfare, Agriculture, and the Chairman of the Federal Power Commission. The Council was given the authority to create Interstate River Basin Commissions, which funded water resources planning projects.

The High Mountain Sheep Project deals with an application from the Pacific Northwest Power Company (PNPC) which is included in Boxes 21 and 22. The PNPC, a private power combine, wanted to build Mountain Sheep Dam on the Snake River on the Oregon, Idaho, and Washington borders. The Washington Public Power Supply System (WPPSS), a combination public utility district, wanted to build their own project on the Nez Perce site but were refused in favor of the private utility. Materials included on this issue are applications, licenses, news clippings, decisions, and opinions.

Newspaper clippings and personal papers are found in box 23. These relate to Ross' political career, personal life, and his nomination to the Federal Power Commission.

Box 24 contains material on p_ower in New York State. The Municipal Electric Utilities Association of New York (MEUA) and United Business Associates, Inc., an Oregon Non-Profit corporation formed to obtain lower cost electric power industrial development, are documented. There are also various speeches on the topic of natural gas.

The Skelly Oil Case (Box 25) deals with South Texas Natural Gas and the TRANSCO project. The FPC enforced price ceilings on the rate of natural gas sales going to the Transmission System of TRANSCO (Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation) of Houston, Texas. Included are orders, applications, notices, opinions, and news briefs.

Box 26 relates to the issue of Power Development and Studies. Topics include Montana-Dakota Utilities, Co., New York state, Niagara and St. Lawrence Projects, and the Canadian Gas Association. These materials are mainly copies of speeches and legislation.

Box 27 documents the Extra-High Voltage Transmission Lines Case. It involved a bill to amend the Federal Powers Act so as to require FPC authority for the construction, extension, or operation of certain facilities for the transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce. Also included is a plan to put private power companies in control of the first Pacific Northwest-Pacific South extra-high voltage transmission system. Included in this box are correspondence and legislative material.

Water Resources (Boxes 28-31), includes issues such as the Water Resources Planning Act of 1963, the Inter-agency Committee on Water Resources, the Wild Rivers Case, drought in Northeast U.S., the Desalination National Science Rivers Bill of 1967, Water Resources Council Scenic Rivers Bill, Steam Power Plants, IJC, Niagara River Ice Boom, and Rainy and Namakin Lake Levels.

Box 32, Water Pollution, documents some IJC references to the Red, St. Mary's and Niagara Rivers pollution. The papers include legislation, executive orders, hearings and meetings.

The Hudson River Water Pollution Case is contained in Box 33. The issue involved legislation for a Hudson National Scenic Riverway based on New York Governor Rockefeller's plan. The Hudson River Basin Compact was a proposal to create a regional agency by intergovernmental compact for the planning, conservation, utilization, development, management, and control of the water and related land resources of the Hudson River Basin. Materials included are legislation, reports, correspondence, hearing transcripts, and studies. Box 34, Water Pollution, documents problems on the St. Clair and Detroit Rivers, and oil and gas pollution on Lake Erie. Included are meeting minutes and hearing proceedings.
