1) Bruce Corn reports on the County Commissioners meeting on Wednesday morning
2) Roger Findley reports on Idaho Power meeting Wednesday afternoon
3) Sign up for committee work, including the following:
- Finance. Are there any accountants who could answer some questions? Make out checks to Stop Idaho Power.
- Communications, including letter writing to political leaders, identifying landowners in the corridor (we will have maps on the wall to identify your property), and more email address signups
- Political contact committee to meet with elected and regulatory officials
- Legal committee to begin the process of vetting an attorney and identifying pertinent legal questions, case law and statutes concerning utilities and condemnation
Bring in any extra petitions, letters, address labels, etc.
We need everyone's help! Idaho Power is digitizing a GPS survey of alternate corridors, a good sign. The PUC website says on its B2H page: "Due to high volume the OPUC will not respond to comments individually." This means we're getting through! Keep it up! Thanks for all you've done, but we still have a long way to go.
I've categorized the links to make things easier to find. Several new documents are now posted under Document Links, including the ODOE Fact Sheet, Oregon Energy Siting Standards for comments to the BLM and ODOE, Points of Concern for Rerouting, and Bullet Points for Political Letters, including addresses. Copies will be available at the Monday Grange meeting.
We can't be reminded enough, don't respond to requests from utility companies to survey or even cross your land.
