Info

We do not plan to give a formal presentation at the meetings, so come anytime between 4 and 8 p.m. Members of the project team will be available to answer your questions and listen to your ideas. Other Ways to Comment - If you cannot come to one of the meetings, you can still comment. If you comment by June 7, 2001, we'll be able to incorporate your ideas into our environmental studies. Call BPA's toll-free comment line at 1-800-622-4519, and leave a message (please include the name of this project); send an e-mail to: comment@bpa.gov; or mail comments to Bonneville Power Administration, Public Affairs Officer - KC-7, P.O. Box 12999, Portland, Oregon 97212. You can use the enclosed form to submit comments if you like. Process/Schedule - You may see a survey crew in the area as they begin preliminary mapping and design work to refine possible routes. We will also conduct on-the-ground environmental surveys. If we need to access property along the proposed route for this work, we will contact property owners for permission. The information we gather in our environmental analysis will be published in a Draft Environmental Impact Statement that will be available for review and comment next year. If you would like to receive a copy, please return the enclosed postcard and check whether you would like to receive it by regular or electronic mail. If you do not return the postcard, you will still receive notice when the study is available. Once we have completed the environmental review, BPA will decide whether and how to proceed with the project. If BPA decides to proceed, construction would likely begin in 2003. For More Information - If you have any questions about this proposal, please call me toll-free at 1-800-282-3713, at my direct number, (503) 230-5525; or send an e-mail to lcdriessen@bpa.gov. Thank you for your interest in our work. Sincerely, /s/ Lou Driessen 5-1-01 Lou Driessen Project Manager 3 Enclosures: Map Post Card Comment Form
