| 2010-16622 | Hooper Springs Project | Notice | BPA intends to prepare an EIS in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) on the proposed construction, operation, and maintenance of a 115-kilovolt (kV) transmission line and a 138/115-kV substation (collectively referred to as the Hooper Springs Project). The new BPA substation would be called Hooper Springs Substation and would be located adjacent to PacifiCorp's existing 345/ 138-kV Threemile Knoll Substation, located near the City of Soda Springs in Caribou County, Idaho. The new 115-kV single-circuit BPA transmission line would extend generally north and east from these substations to a connection with Lower Valley Energy's (LVE's) existing 115-kV Lane Creek Substation, east of the City of Wayan, Idaho. The proposed project would address voltage stability and reliability concerns of two of BPA's full requirements customers, LVE and Fall River Rural Electric Cooperative (Fall River), which purchase all or almost all of the electric power required to serve their loads from BPA under existing contracts. With this Notice of Intent, BPA is initiating the public scoping process for the EIS and is requesting comments about the proposal and its potential environmental impacts that BPA should consider as it prepares the EIS. In accordance with DOE regulations for compliance with floodplain and wetlands environmental review requirements, BPA will prepare a floodplain and wetlands assessment to avoid or minimize potential harm to or within any affected floodplains and wetlands. The assessment will be included in the EIS. | 2010-07-08 | 2010 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/07/08/2010-16622/hooper-springs-project | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-07-08/pdf/2010-16622.pdf | Energy Department; Bonneville Power Administration | 136,40 | BPA intends to prepare an EIS in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) on the proposed construction, operation, and maintenance of a 115-kilovolt (kV) transmission line and a 138/115-kV substation (collectively referred to as the... |
