Georgia Power 57
Budget Is Record
A 1957 construction budget of
more than $51,000,000, the largest
in the Georgia Power Company’s
history, was approved last week
by the company’s board of direc
tors. This figure compares with
$40,000,000 spent in 1956.
In addition to this record ex
penditure, John J. McDonough,
president, said approximately
$11,000,000 in cash would be paid
for the properties of the Georgia
Power and Light Company and a
bout $2,400,000 would be invest
ed in new and improved facilities
in the South Georgia area.
Mr. McDonough said the larg
est single item in the Georgia
Power budget is the continuation
of work on two 125,000-kilowatt
generating units at Plant Yates
near Newnan. The first of the
two new generating units will
come into service in June of 1957
and the second in June of 1958.
