Richard Teramura found a graphic artist who superimposed high power transmission lines on a picture of Malheur Butte, and the result is posted above. The picture is also being sent to the Argus. Malheur County Court is beginning proceedings to set aside Malheur Butte and other landmarks as protected scenic areas, but the process will take 45 days. Please lend your support to this effort!
Richard also noticed on the PDF map of the corridor, a very obvious desire on the part of Idaho Power to avoid crossing private property of the beneficiaries of this huge project at the expense of Malheur County residents. One can only ask WHY. Download the map using the link to the right.
An article (appears under Important Links) sent in by Tiffany C. about mini nuclear plants that provide power for 20,000 residents for $25 million each is sounding pretty good right now.
