Willow Creek Summit and Windy Devil Communication Station Project; Custer County, Idaho
Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is proposing to develop two communication stations in Custer County, Idaho – one near the existing Willow Creek Summit Communication Site on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land and one near the existing Windy Devil Communication Site on US Forest Service (USFS) land.
To understand the potential environmental impacts of the proposal, BPA, in coordination with the BLM, is preparing an environmental assessment (EA). The analysis will be used by the agencies to help make decisions regarding the proposal. The EA will describe anticipated impacts to natural and human resources and include mitigation measures that would help avoid or minimize impacts. BPA is asking for public comments to help determine the issues that should be addressed in the EA.
