Scope and Contents
Local news segment opens discussing a recent law related to energy use and efficiency. The segment then transitions to how at least 11 hotels and casinos in the area are starting to charge for power. Harrah's and the Rio were the first to charge a power fee, but many other quickly followed suit. Matt Davis (Nevada Power VP) is interviewed and questions whether or not they need to charge a surcharge, but casinos continue to charge despite it not being clear if the fees will actually help pay power bills. Station Casinos CFO Glenn Christianson is then interviewed about the surcharge, and he explains the fees will go to paying the power bills and why it took some time to start charging. He answers many questions about why certain properties started first, and how they are conserving energy right now, if there are any employee initiatives to help mitigate the costs, and why the hotel guests are responsible for paying the bills. Original media VHS, color, aspect ratio 4 x 3, frame size 720 x 486.
