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.

The disputed area is a strip of land near the Colorado border, and millions of dollars are at stake. The dispute arose from conflicting treaties and acts defining the boundaries of the tribes' territories. The disagreement became more prominent with the discovery of oil in the area. Both tribes entered into a joint leasing agreement, but a supplemental agreement in 1965 removed the disputed strip from the agreement. The legislation being considered would allow for a three-judge court to decide the case with the right of direct appeal to the United States Supreme Court. The Department of the Interior recommended an amendment to clarify that the United States is not a party in the litigation but consents to the settlement of the dispute between the two tribes.

Johnson responds to a letter from Rufus O'Neal of the Pit River Tribal Council regarding the dissatisfaction of the Pit River Indians with the distribution of a $29,000,000 judgment. Johnson explains that the matter is closed as the judgment is final and not subject to appeal. He suggests continuing negotiations with the Bureau of Indian Affairs or the Secretary of the Interior for a solution to the land problem, rather than pursuing legislative action. Johnson emphasizes the need for the Pit River Indians to abide by the final decision made by the Indian Claims Commission and Congress.
