Brief: Nevada Power chief sets retirement date

Friday, Jan. 15, 1999 | 12:16 p.m.

Lenzie worked for Nevada Power during a period of dramatic growth, and guided the company into a merger with Reno-based utility Sierra Pacific Resources.

He joined the company in 1974 as vice president of finance. At that time, Nevada Power served only 118,000 customers. Today, the company serves nearly 550,000. Over the same period, assets grew from $332 million to $2.3 billion.

"His leadership will be sorely missed," said Michael Niggli, president and chief operating officer of Nevada Power.

Lenzie has been expected to retire since the Sierra Pacific merger was announced last year. The deal is expected to close mid-year.
