Bonneville Power Administration is proposing to remedy two impairments on the Big Eddy - Spring Creek transmission line. An impairment is an area where the distance from the conductor to the ground surface is inadequate, per National Electrical Safety Code standards, resulting in a threat to line reliability and posing a risk to public health and safety. The proposed work is necessary to ensure the line meets current National Electrical Safety Code and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission standards.
