Bonneville Power Administration proposes to install shunt capacitors and associated equipment at its DeMoss Substation in Wasco County, Oregon. The substation is currently susceptible to voltage fluctuations under certain peak load conditions that could cause damage to Bonneville Power Administration-owned and customer-owned transmission equipment. New shunt capacitors would stabilize voltage fluctuations and maintain Bonneville Power Administration's standards of transmission system reliability.
