Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposes to perform routine road maintenance activities along existing access roads, both on and off the rights-of-way. The work involves approximately 5,000 linear feet of road reconstruction or improvement work. The roadwork is needed to improve access for crews that will be maintaining the transmission line and towers within the transmission line corridor. The work will consist primarily of blading and shaping of access roads, construction or maintenance of drainage structures or features, placement and compaction of crushed aggregate on designated sections of access road and installation of gates.
