I government. "This would open a window on government to many citizens who now feel they have no way of tracking what is happening in the state government," said Tracy Westen, a University of Southern Calfifornia professor and co-author of a two-year study on the need for the public affairs television network. But the plan drew opposition from one news service that provides videotape from the state house to 14 television stationsr throughout California. "Now I'm seeing this report that says television has abandonned the Capitol," Steve Mallory of the Northern California News Service told lawmakers. "Quite frankly this report is wrong.

Nothing could be further from the truth." The television network proposed by The California Channel would be By Kathleen Grubb Associated Press SACRAMENTO A nonprofit corporation wants to provide continuous television coverage of state lawmakers in action in Sacramento, similar to the C-SPAN system currently employed in Washington, D.C. The Sacramento drama would be beamed to 5 million California homes under a plan aired Monday, by a corporation called The California Channel. Corporation officials said television coverage of the Legislature is virtually nonexistent outside of Sacramento, ranks far behind that of other states and is a public embarrassment. The group of business and civic leaders held a Capitol news conference to call for the creation of a public-subsidized cable television channel dedicated to providing gavel-to-gavel coverage of state which broadcasts congressional sessions, hearings and news conferences from the Capitol in Washington to cable- viewers nationwide. A member of The California Channel's board of directors is Ed Allen, who co-founded C-SPAN a decade ago.

Like C-SPAN, the cameras w6uld be government owned and operated, costing state taxpayers $850,000 to $2 million to install depending on the extent of coverage, and from $43,000 to $866,000 in annual operating costs. Westen said the costs would average "a few cents a year per Californian." An independent corporation such as The California Channel would transmit the television signals via satellite to cable companies, public and commercial television stations, and schools. The network's start-up costs of $970,000 to $2.9 million and annual operating costs of $1.3 million to $2.4 million would be financed by tax-deductible donations from corporations and foundations. After a trial-period of two to three years, cable television systems would be charged a license fee. Paul Koplin, The California Channel's executive director, said the station could start as early as November 1990.
