![["The Broken Bow Reservoir Mountain Pork River project in the Red River Basin, Oklahoma, was authorized in 1958 without power.

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.
