Cowlitz Tap to Chehalis-Covington #1 Transmission Line Wood Pole Replacement
CX(s) Applied: B1.3
Date: 04/18/2011
Location(s): Pierce County, Washington
Office(s): Bonneville Power Administration

Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposes to replace deteriorating wood poles and associated structural/electrical components (e.g. crossarms, insulators, guy anchors) at structure 2/12 within the subject transmission line. Pole replacement will be in-kind and will utilize the existing holes to minimize ground disturbance. If necessary, an auger will be used to remove any loose soil from the existing hole prior to new wood pole replacement. Landing construction is not planned or anticipated at this location.
