I have recieved the Western Canyon County 500 KV A line projected path for Canyon and Ada counties and we are VERY concerned about the route. It looks to take over prime agriculture lands as it makes its way across the valley. The area we service from our stores in Jerome, Gooding and Elmore counties appear not affected as the line looks to turn farther south over unimproved lands. The areas of Ada and Eastern Canyon Counties have had poorly planned residential development and we need to all work together to do a much better job with the location of this power line path so as to protect some of the best agricultural land left in this area. I realize the need for added power capacity to this valley, but at the same time, we must make sure not to damage our ag base that has been the back bone of the Treasure Valley.
Sincerely,
Dan Campbell
