biomass-fueled power plant. It would be the world.'s largest biomass-fueled electric generating plant. Its output, estimated to be about 40,000 to 50,000 kilowatts, would be enough to supply the electrical needs of 50,000 people. The plant would be the first to burn Woodex, a trademarked name for a pelletized refined biomass fuel of wood, agricultural wastes, sawdust, grape clippings, cotton waste, bark, and similar products. The fuel developed would contain no sulfur and burn more efficiently with fewer em- misions than unrefined biomass.

Governor Brown proposed a budget with S250 million more for crime fighting. That would include money for new law clerks, judges, and staff. He also requested S40 million to improve county jails and 827.7 million for new prison construction.

Shumway had a comman- ding total of 96,493 votes over 58,936 for Cerney. Senator Garamendi kept his title with an overpowering 110,952 votes over William johnson's 53,915.
