Natural gas-fueled power plants consume even less, at 100 gallons/MWh for once-through, 370 gallons/MWh for combined-cycle plants with cooling towers and none for dry cooling. Hydropowerâs typical water consumption is the most significant at 4,500 gallons/MWh, due in large part to evaporation from reservoirs.
There are 435 members of the House of Representatives. Federal law determines how many members are in the House of Representatives. The law was passed on Aug. 8, 1911. That measure raised the number of representatives to 435 from 391 because of population growth in the United States. The first House of Representatives in 1789 had only 65 members. The number of seats in the House was expanded to 105 members after the 1790 Census, and then to 142 members after the 1800 head count. The law that set the current number of seats at 435 took effect in 1913.
