MERCO Joint Venture spread the material last September on about 20 acres of rangeland in Sierra Blanca, only to discover later the sludge did not meet Texas standards and should have gone to a New York recycling plant. Subsequent tests showed the sludge was safe and did not pollute MERCO's ranch, which is about 90 miles southeast of El Paso. But the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission decided to levy the fine as a way of cracking down to prevent a repeat, said agency spokesman Ed Clark. "We said to the community there, 'You do not have to worry about this project.' So when a problem occurs, the actions of the (commission) are going to be stringent," said Clark. MERCO spokeswoman Kelly Sarber said the company accepts responsibility for the mishap and will "do whatever is required" by the commission. MERCO has a six-year, $168 million contract to haul sludge from New York City and apply in on the ranch. Some researchers say the material can make arici rangeland more productive when used as a fertilizer. But environmentalists have protested the project because they fear the sludge will pollute the land and water with heavy metals and pathogens. Bill Addington, head of Save Sierra Blanca, said the incident in September indicates a lack of oversight. Hutchison Continued from Page 1 was indicted on similar charge by Earle." Hapes said Hutchison’s chances for re-election won't!)! known until November. "It's better for her to hare been acquitted," she said. "M pie may forget about it." Ron Going, a sophomore phi losophy major and a member o: the College Democrats, said tli| campaign probably won't dwei much on Hutchison's misgivl in g s - 1 "This will come up in tlii| campaign," he said. "AnditwiI be normal knock-down-drag-oiT politics for a Texas campaign." Going said both sideshatl blamed the controversy on pol ; ical motivation. "Judge John Onion wasaf pointed by President Reagar he said, "so of course it's pi I ical when you have a parfe judge." Hutchison will run unojl posed in the March 8 priitf The Senate election will be November. iU Senate Continued from Page 1 tions Committee were approved by the Senate with little discus sion and will be sent to Interim President E. Dean Gage for final approval. Paterson said he was pleased with the actions of the Senate. "They focused on those impor tant issues within the proposals and had some good discussion." In other business, the Senate approved a motion for the cre ation of the School of Govern ment and Public Service within the College of Liberal Arts. Dr. James Morgan, speakei the Faculty Senate, said the pi posal included the formation^ new academic unit to beassob ed with the development oft Bush Library. "This is fulfilling a proff ; that was made with the proj® for the Bush Library," Mof said. Budget Continued from Page 1 The administration estimates that balancing the budget by 2000: • Using a combination of spending cuts and tax hikes would cost each Texas taxpayer $713 more a year in taxes. The state would lose $2.1 billion in federal money for crime, educa tion, infrastructure and the envi ronment, and another $1.1 billion in defense spending. The average Social Security recipient would lose $568, while the average Medicare recipient would receive $484 less. • Using spending cuts alone would cut $1,033 for the average Social Security recipient and $881 per Medicare recipient; and trim $2 billion from defense spending in Texas and $3.8 billion for edu cation, crime, infrastructure and the environment. The administration contends the near $500 billion deficit-re duction package enactecl year is slashing the deficit.: ancing the budget this dec would drain too much Die’ from the private sector, admit tration officials have said. The Senate is set to debatf amendment Feb. 22, with comp ing hearings starting Tuesday The measure's chief Set ; sponsor. Democrat Paul Simot Illinois, has written legisla# that would require a balaPi budget but not spell outho« do it. The measure would!* effect in 2001. Nuclear Continued from Page 1 decision we've been agonizing over. We don't make decisions like that lightly. We have ade quate confidence right now. "But I have to tell, you, in a sense we have a hair trigger on this. It wouldn't take much to undermine this." "I'm very pleased," William Cottle, nuclear vice president for the utility, said. Utility executives, in a more than two-hour presentation to the Nuclear Regulatory Commis sion, assured the federal panel Monday they had addressed nu merous concerns and were ready to restart the plant. "We will proceed cautiously," Cottle said. "Though the startup of Unit 1 is obviously an impor tant milestone, we will not relax. We will not back off our im provement program. We recog nize our goal to become world- class will have only begun." Monday's meeting was de layed for several days because HL&P crews had to replace failed backup batteries in two ventilation systems at the plant. That and a number of other problems were addressed indi vidually at the session Monday. Sixteen long-term issues, in cluding such items as tornado precautions, fire safety respff es, maintenance and staffing engineering backlogs havel* resolved, the utility said. Among those items also' 1 the question of reliabilitj pumps which failed a yearJ prompting the shutdown of reactors. "These components havek : declared operable to suppf power operation here at Sot Texas," Ted Cloninger, vice ident for nuclear engineer'! told the federal panel, that "extensive efforts," ind 1 ing correction of material^ ciencies and preventive maii 1 ’ nance, have been taken to ens 1 the reliability of the pumps
