What is the Community Advisory Process?

Following the review of comments received during scoping, Idaho Power initiated the Community Advisory Process to recommend proposed and alternate routes for the proposed Boardman to Hemingway Transmission Line Project.

Representatives from local communities will serve on the teams and will make recommendations to Idaho Power on a proposed and alternate line routes.

Teams will meet four or fives times to learn the basics about electricity, infrastructure, rates, siting requirements and other topics. Next they will work with maps that show constraints and opportunities to place lines on the map that represent their preferred locations for siting the line.
