CX-020389: Driscoll-Astoria 19/3 Impairment Correction Project

Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposes to correct an impairment to the Driscoll-Astoria transmission line near structure 19/3. The ground to conductor distance has been determined to be insufficient based on current electrical safety standards. BPA is proposing to raise structures 19/2, 19/3, and 19/4 by rebuilding them in the same configuration with taller poles at their current locations. The rebuild would include any associated hardware, guy wires, and counterpoise. Additionally BPA would re-conductor from structure 19/1 within Fernhill substation to structure 19/4.
