Residential Exchange Program Customer Load Eligibility Guidelines

Bonneville Power Administration is proposing a revised set of Customer Load Eligibility Guidelines to assist Residential Exchange Program participating utilities in making determinations on residential and farm loads eligible for REP benefits (Exchange Loads). 

BPA developed the CLEG to provide guidance to REP- participating utilities in determining whether residential, farm and irrigation loads are eligible for REP benefits under the Northwest Power Act.  Specifically, the CLEG provides guidance to utilities regarding a variety of issues related to eligible and ineligible retail customers under the REP. 

Throughout the term of the REP, BPA has made periodic updates to the CLEG.  Over the past six months, BPA, utilities participating in the REP and other interested parties have worked together to update and provide greater clarity to the CLEG.  The use of this document continues as a guideline only and may be revised at any time.

Through this notice, BPA is requesting public comments on the updated CLEG.

Kalispell-Kerr Transmission Line Rebuild Project

Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is proposing to rebuild its 41-mile long 115 kilovolt (kV) wood-pole Kalispell-Kerr transmission line between Kalispell and Polson, Montana.  The existing wood-pole line was constructed in 1947 and most of the structures are now physically worn.  Based on its deteriorated condition, the line needs to be rebuilt in order to maintain reliable electrical service, avoid risks to the public, and ensure worker safety.

To understand the potential environmental impacts of this proposal, BPA will prepare an environmental assessment (EA) following the procedures of the National Environmental Policy Act.  The EA will describe anticipated impacts to natural and human resources and include mitigation measures that would help avoid or minimize impacts. 

Two public meetings will be held to answer questions and accept comments about the scope of the EA that will be prepared: 

Monday June 17, 2013
4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
North Lake County Public Library
2 First Avenue East
Polson, Montana  59860

Tuesday June 18, 2013
4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Edgerton Elementary School
1400 Whitefish Stage
Kalispell, Montana  59901
