The Bonneville Power Administration developed this EIS to examine the environmental effects of expanding the capacity of the Pacific Northwest/Pacific Southwest Intertie, adoption of a long-term Intertie Access Policy, and enabling firm power marketing between California and the Northwest in order to make possible additional short- and long-term sales of the Federal power surplus. The Western Area Power Administration cooperated in the preparation of this EIS by virtue of its special expertise concerning the Third Alternating Current/California-Oregon Transmission Project.
