Crisp County Power Commission

In 1925 after an amendment was made to the Georgia State Constitution, the Crisp County Power Commission was established. The amendment was the result of a petition made by a group of residents from Crisp County to develop a hydroelectric power system along the Flint River. Georgia government officials decided to build a power dam in order to satisfy the Crisp County resident's request.〔(History )〕 The Crisp County Hydroelectric Power Dam, proposed by the Crisp County Power Commission, was the first county owned, built, and operated power dam project in the United States.〔(New Georgia Encyclopedia: Crisp County )〕
== History ==
Due to the suggestion made by several Crisp County citizens to build a hydroelectric power resource on the Flint River, the Crisp County Power Commission was established after an amendment to the Georgia State Constitution was completed. The Amendment of 1925 in the Georgia State Constitution stated that the Crisp County Power Commission's primary purpose was to support "the agricultural, industrial and civic interests" of the inhabitants of Crisp County. The Georgia government decided that the Commission would be governed by a seven member board including three County Commissioners and four members appointed by the Crisp County Grand Jury.
The Commission's first task was to issue $1.25 million in revenue bonds in order to finance the Lake Blackshear Dam and Reiesvoir.〔 The construction of the project was completed, and the power was first generated in August 1930.〔(hydro-usa-fl-ga )〕 Before the construction of the dam, like all rural areas of the South, residents of Crisp County did not have any type of electrical service. After the construction of the Lake Blackshear Dam and Reiesvoir, the Power Commissioners began supplying lines for county residents to receive the benefits of the newly generated electricity.
