§ Hydro Energy from Water Pipelines - Boulder, Colorado has incorporated eight hydroelectric generators with a combined rated capacity of 20.1 megawatts into the city’s municipal water system with minimal environmental impact since the water supply infrastructure was already in place. These small hydro plants convert the water pressure developed within water transmission pipelines as Boulder’s municipal water supplies are delivered down into the city from their source in the mountains high above Boulder. The turbine-generators were installed adjacent to pressure reducing valves that are necessary for proper water supply operations, but that waste this source of energy. The hydro plants generate about 45 million kilowatt-hours of electricity a year that is sold to Xcel Energy for about $2 million per year. Presenter: Carol Ellinghouse - Water Resources Coordinator, Boulder Colorado

For all the Rove-built facade of his being a 'strong' chief executive, George W. Bush has been, by comparison to even hapless Jimmy Carter, the weakest, most out of touch president in modern times.

Think Dan Quayle in cowboy boots.
