Maybe you've heard about PSE's plans to collect up to $1 billion through higher energy bills to build the “Energize Eastside” transmission line. PSE hopes to install giant new poles (80-100' tall) and high-voltage wires through 18 miles of the Eastside. The line would be constructed within feet of the aging Olympic jet fuel pipeline - the same one that exploded in Bellingham in 1999. This project will not measurably increase reliability or decrease the most common types of power outages.
The "Energize Eastside" website is packed with information: http://www.energizeeastsideeis.org/
*NEW* Attend a Public Hearing
If you would like to learn more about the Energize Eastside EIS or provide oral comments on the Phase 2 Draft EIS, three public hearings are being held in May and June. Each meeting will begin with an open house, followed by a short presentation and an oral comment period. The oral comment period will begin approximately 45 minutes after the start of the meeting. The order of speakers will be chosen at random.
The meeting exhibits will be provided on this website prior to the first meeting, so you can review them if you are unable to attend a meeting in person. The information presented at all of the meetings will be the same. Attendance is optional. You can provide comments without attending a meeting.
