Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 75 / Tuesday, April 21, 2009 / Notices
The no-action alternative is for BPA to
deny WRE’s request that BPA offer
contract terms for this interconnection.
The scoping process may help identify
other alternatives suitable for
consideration in the EIS.
Process to Date: WRE has filed an
application for a site certificate to
construct the Project. Surveys for
sensitive plant and wildlife species and
cultural resources were initiated in the
spring of 2001 and have been ongoing.
Scoping will help identify what
additional studies will be needed for the
Project and the interconnection.
Public Participation and
Identification of Environmental Issues:
The potential issues of concern
identified for most wind projects
include visual issues, noise levels,
impacts to cultural resources, socioeconomic ramifications, effects on rare
plant and animal species, and impacts
to wildlife, including migratory birds
and bats. The joint EIS will assess these
potential impacts for the proposed
Project, as well as potential
environmental impacts from the
proposed interconnection. Other issues,
identified during scoping, will also be
addressed in the EIS.
When completed, a Draft EIS will be
circulated for review and comment, and
BPA and EFSEC will hold at least one
combined public comment meeting for
the Draft EIS. BPA and EFSEC will
consider and respond in the Final EIS
to comments received on the Draft EIS.
BPA’s subsequent decision will be
documented in a Record of Decision.
Issued in Portland, Oregon, on April 13,
2009.

Administrator and Chief Executive Officer.

Environmental Impact Statement (DOE/
EIS–0183, June 1995), and the Business
Plan Record of Decision (BP ROD,
August 15, 1995). The wind project will
be interconnected at BPA’s Jones
Canyon Switching Station (SS), about
three miles southwest of Arlington,
Gilliam County, Oregon. The Jones
Canyon SS will provide the wind
project with transmission access to
BPA’s McNary-Jones Canyon 230kilovolt transmission line and the Jones
Canyon-Santiam 230-kilovolt
transmission line.
