Schwarzenegger celebrates removal of power delivery bottleneck
FOLSOM, Calif. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and other state officials are glowing over the end to a bottleneck in the state's power grid. A-quarter (b) billion dollar upgrade has added a third transmission line through a critical part of the power grid. Officials predict the new system will go on line later this month.
The old system was partly to blame for the state's energy crisis four years ago.
Schwarzenegger has also signed an executive order calling on the state to cut its own energy use over the next ten years.
