Dear
6 June 1979
STAT
answer any other questions you might nave on the subject.
This is in response to your 10 May inquiry about possible CIA
participation in the VEPCO decision to upgrade the transmission lines
between CIA/Idylwood/Tyson's Corner substations. CIA did not request
the upgrading. Furthermore, the project will not increase our power
supply.
The CIA substation is located on U.S. Government property within
the CIA compound. but the CIA is a VEPCO customer like other area users
and has no voice in VEPCO policy. VEPCO informed the CIA in August 197h
that it had received permission from the State Corporation Commission of
Virginia to rebuild the transmission lines in the area. VEPCO, in
accordance with its agreement with the U.S. Government, requested written
permission from the CIA for work to be done within CIA boundaries. We
replied that we had no objection to the project, but we did not specifically
approve it.
I hope this information meets your needs. We will be happy to
Sincerely.
