MR. DON N. HIGGINS, Engineer with Brown & Root, appeared before the Council regarding the prices obtained on equipment for the new Power Plant, stating the prices were exceedingly low, and the reason why they were low were that the major equipment companies recognized Austin now as having gone into "big league" when it started off with this 100,000 KW; that the big equipment companies wanted their equipment in the new power plant because of the University students here that have opportunity to visit the plants; and because of the effectiveness of the City Engineering Department in making available sound operating data and operating conditions that enabled the engineering consultants to write a very specific set of specifications.
