The Department of the Interior believes that power from the project can be marketed to cover costs, but the Bureau of the Budget emphasizes the need for a 50-year repayment period for power investments.

![["The Broken Bow Reservoir Mountain Pork River project in the Red River Basin, Oklahoma, was authorized in 1958 without power. Power was later authorized under Public Law 87.874, Title II--Flood Control. The estimated cost of the project was $23,800,000. The Southwestern Power Administration indicated that they could market power from the hydro plant to recover costs. The Bureau of the Budget stated that power costs should be recovered within 50 years. The responsibility for repayment of power costs rests with the Department of the Interior. The average useful life of hydraulic power production is listed as ranging from 35 to 150 years. The average number of years for amortization of existing power features in multiple-purpose dams and reservoirs is approximately 75 years. Construction work at Broken Bow Reservoir was contracted to Nello Lo Teer for embankment and dike construction."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Projects,%201947-1975-CAC_CC_001_15_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_001_15_9_3_0000-Broken%20Bow%20Reservoir%20and%20Dam,%201962-1972/thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_15_9_3_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Power Authorization and Construction at Broken Bow Reservoir, Oklahoma")
