ROTARY SPEAKER GARY STANSELL (L)
Greeted By Milton ‘‘Cotton’ Greeson
TVA Official
Lauds Change
There has been a ‘“basic
philosophical change'’ at the
Tennessee Valley Authority
(TVA), according to the area
manager of governmental and
public affairs for the giant
utility.
Gary F. Stansell told the
Summerville-Trion Rotary
Club Monday that TVA has
started operating ‘‘more like a
business and %ess like a
bureaucracy.”” Under the
leadership of Marvin Runyan,
TV A has reduced its total work
force — including contractors
— by 17,500 people this year,
Stansell sai(f. Runyan
previously spent his career in
the automobile manufacturing
business, his latest stint at the
Nissan plant in Tennessee.
RATES SAME
Power rates will be the
same for TVA’s customers in
1989 as they were this year,
Stansell said. TVA had to
reduce its 1989 budget by six
percent to meet that goal, he
added. The power-producer is
now lookinF at its 1990 budget.
Several TVA programs,
especially the energy conserva
tion project, have been
eliminated or reduced, he
continued.
The utility still operates its
economic and industrial
development assistance pro
gram as well as a program to
serve the needs of existing in
dustry, Stansell said. Its
targeted industry project helps
communities decide what types
of industry they want to at
tract that wouf,d “fit? their
needs.
TVA plans to set its rates
for three-year stretches, he
said. That's a “‘pretty good in
centive” to talk about to a pro
spective industx¥ that wants to
move to the TVA's service
area, he added.
TIGHT SUPPLY
The utility had a ‘‘pretty
tight'" power sgj)ply this sum
mer because all its nuclear
plants were out of commission
and it had available only 50
percent of its hydro-electric
power due to the drought.
~ One nuclear unit is back on
line and another is expected to
start lfip in the near future,
Stansell said. Late summer and
early fall rains also helped
restore some of TVA's reser
voirs. But the drought *‘is still
here,”” he warned. During 1970
to 1980, rainfall was above nor
mal and from 1980 to the pre
sent, rainfall has been well
below normal. The TV A region
“lost” a full year of rainfall dur
ing the past four years, he
noted. TV A isn't sure what the
drought will mean to its reser
voirs over the long term or
what it will mean to the
underground water table.
QUESTIONS
During the question period,
We can usually insure your house, furnishings, outbuildings,
mobile home or business at a big savings to you, Why? Because:
We are a Co-op Mutual Co.
We are exempt from all taxes and licenses.
We are a non-profit association and prohibited by state laws from
making a profit.
We have no agents — so you pay no agent's commission.
You deal directly with an officer of the company. You deal with
homefolk in buying your insurance and paying claims.
: We are the largest and oldest Farmer's Mutual in Georgia,
organized in 1892 and insuring property in our area ever since.

WE DO NOT INSURE AUTOS
Stansell said Congress has
reduced TVA's appropriations
by about 50 percent durinf the
past five years. Some of the
authority's funds come from
power generation and other
money comes from Congress,
he said. : .
It had 34,000 employees
before the cutbacks this year,
Stansell said, but he wasn’t
sure how many of the 7,500
layoffs involved TVA
contractors. o
TVA has developed about
90 percent of all fertilizers us
ed in the free world, he told the
Rotarians.
NEW PLANT
It will also dedicate a se
cond generation plant next
week that burns high sulfur
coal and limestone with little
pollution. The plant, located in
Paducah, Kif.. may have solv
ed the pollution problems
associate(f with high sulfur coal
with the use of limestone,
Stansell continued. The nation
has a plentiful supply of the
coal and limestone in all
regions. Virtually all electric
generating {Jlants must now
burn low sulfur coal.
Stansell was the guest of
Rotarian Milton “gl(;tton"
Greeson, local manager of the
North Georgia Electric
Membership Corp.
“ROGER” FEMALE
Meanwhile, Rotarian
Charles Ellington told the club
that ‘‘Roger’ rabbit had eight
baby rabbits late last week.
Ellington “won" Roger on Oct.
17 as (Eart of a Rotary member
ship drive. At the beginning of
the effort, sponsors Henry
Watson and Bill Baisley
assured the Rotarians that
Roger was a male.
Ellington said Monday that
their ‘‘advanced age'’ had ap
parently made sex “irrelevant”
to both men since they claim
ed not to have known that
Roger was really “‘Lucille.” Her
nickname is “‘Loose,” he said in
referring to the unexpected
birth of the rabbits, all ofp which
were apparently stillborn.
Rotarian Sam Freeman,
who was out of town Monday,
“won’’ Roger for this week.
Watson told the Rotarians
that the membership competi
tion between the Summerville-
Trion and LaFayette clubs is
now neck and neck. Loser of
the drive has to prepare steak
for the winner, while the loser
eats beans.
RUBBER BACKING
Bathroom and scatter rugs
with rubber or foam backing
can be washed in a washer
following the manufacturer's
care label instructions. They
should not be heat dried in a
dryer. Use the air setting only
or line dry, say experts at the
Soap and Detergent
Association.
