We will be discussing the following:
- The final three route alternatives chosen by Idaho Power's Community Advisory Process.
- Possible outcomes as these routes are put through the NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) process.
- The Oregon Public Utilities Commission Hearing for Need scheduled for April 20th in Ontario. Information as to place and time will be forthcoming.
Remember that the Hearing for Need addresses one of the EFSC (Oregon's Energy Facility Siting Council) standards for granting an application for building the B2H line. This is an opportunity for any individual or community along the proposed routes to make a case before the OPUC that this line is not needed and therefore should not be built.
