L. 113–23, § 2, Aug. 9, 2013, 127 Stat. 493, provided that: ‘‘Congress finds that— ‘‘(1) the hydropower industry currently employs ap- proximately 300,000 workers across the United States; ‘‘(2) hydropower is the largest source of clean, re- newable electricity in the United States; ‘‘(3) as of the date of enactment of this Act [Aug. 9, 2013], hydropower resources, including pumped stor- age facilities, provide— ‘‘(A) nearly 7 percent of the electricity generated in the United States; and ‘‘(B) approximately 100,000 megawatts of electric capacity in the United States; ‘‘(4) only 3 percent of the 80,000 dams in the United States generate electricity, so there is substantial potential for adding hydropower generation to non- powered dams; and ‘‘(5) according to one study, by utilizing currently untapped resources, the United States could add ap- proximately 60,000 megawatts of new hydropower ca- pacity by 2025, which could create 700,000 new jobs over the next 13 years.’’ SUBCHAPTER I—REGULATION OF THE DE- VELOPMENT OF WATER POWER AND RE- SOURCES Statutory Notes and Related Subsidiaries CODIFICATION; CONSTRUCTION Act Aug. 26, 1935, ch. 687, title II, § 212, 49 Stat. 847, provided that sections 1 to 29 of the Federal Water Power Act, as amended (sections 792, 793, 794 to 797, 798 to 818, 819, and 820 to 823 of this title) shall constitute part I of the act.

16 U.S.C. § 832h — Miscellaneous administrative provisions

Page 1483 TITLE 16—CONSERVATION § 832h the purposes set forth in section 832 of this title. Rate schedules shall be drawn having regard to the recovery (upon the basis of the application of such rate schedules to the capacity of the electric facilities of Bonneville project) of the cost of producing and transmitting such electric energy, including the amortization of the cap- ital investment over a reasonable period of years. Rate schedules shall be based upon an al- location of costs made by the Secretary of En- ergy. In computing the cost of electric energy developed from water power created as an inci- dent to and a byproduct of the construction of the Bonneville project, the Secretary of Energy may allocate to the costs of electric facilities such a share of the cost of facilities having joint value for the production of electric energy and other purposes as the power development may fairly bear as compared with such other pur- poses.
