counties, Oregon, and has requested interconnection to the FCRTS at a
point along BPA's existing Tower RoadAlkali 115kilovolt transmission

Wind Project to interconnect to BPA's transmission line, and will
install new equipment at BPA's existing Boardman Substation in Morrow

decision to interconnect the Wind Project is consistent with and tiered
to BPA's Business Plan Final Environmental Impact Statement (DOE/EIS
