Idaho Power's Electrical Grid Projections

From the Virginia website: "..the PJM process may result in overbuilding transmission versus other alternatives, with the accompanying costs being borne by the ratepayers and the appearance of the Virginia landscape being adversely affected."

The question will be asked whether Idaho Power's 2006 Integrated Resource Plan Needs Projection is still relevant in a time of economic collapse.

As Jean Findley says, ". . . this is the issue with PUC, who will determine the 'need' for this thing. That's why we want the 'need' hearing to be held in Eastern Oregon, so we can all hear the arguments. We should have well over 1,000 signatures on the petition to PUC for us to be directly informed of all processes relating to this line."
