What happens to the revenues from the sale of CRSP power?
Revenues from the sale of CRSP power are deposited in the U.S. treasury and are used to fund Glen Canyon Dam’s construction costs (including interest), irrigation assistance, operation and maintenance costs, salinity control, and environmental programs. Since 1983, CRSP power revenues have funded over $225 million of costs associated with environmental programs in the Grand Canyon. Since 2000, environmental experiments at Glen Canyon Dam recommended through the AMP cost an additional $33.5 million.
