Thursday, Oct. 1st Mapping Workshop
The all-day mapping workshop will be divided into three sessions to make the best use of attendees' time. PAT members will be asked to sign up for a time in advance:
- Session 1 - 7 to 10 a.m.
- Session 2 - 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
- Session 3 - 5 to 8 p.m.
Please arrive on time. Contact Amanda Edge at 208-377-9688 or Amanda@rcbi.net if you plan to attend, or to schedule an alternate time.
Idaho Power and Jean Findley will be available all day.
- A map of the specific project area
- Large reference maps showing cultural and visual resources, land use, physical and natural resources, fish and wildlife resources, exclusion areas, and topography
- Geographic Information System (GIS) stations with a computerized database of opportunities and constraints
- Community criteria
- Mapping reminders and instructions
Idaho Power will keep a detailed record of all routes. Team members will be asked to provide a written description and comments for the routes they identify. Your comments may simply be that you choose a route already mapped.
After the mapping session, Idaho Power will analyze each route using the regulatory, engineering and community criteria. The analysis will be presented at the next set of PAT meetings. The teams then will begin revising and eliminating routes. Additional mapping sessions may be needed.
