- NORTH OF PEARL
Reconductor the existing Pearl-Keeler #1 500 kV line and leveraging an existing corridor to add a second 500 kV line between Pearl and Keeler.
Relocating and rebuilding the existing Pearl-Sherwood #1 and #2 230 kV lines to accommodate Pearl-Keeler #2 500 kV line.
Repurpose the existing section of Keeler-Oregon City #2 115 kV between Sherwood and Oregon City as the new Keeler-Sherwood (PGE) 115 kV Line, terminating into Sherwood.
Justification as BPA states it: Will create additional capacity to support regional load growth, reliability needs and commercial requests for long-term transmission
Line segments
A planning bundle in BPA's Grid Expansion and Reinforcement Portfolio: status, expected energization and cost change with each cycle; not a permit, a contract or a route. Proposed line rebuilds and upgrades as BPA published them for its GERP cycle: expected energization year, estimated cost in dollars and status are BPA's planning figures at publication and change with each cycle; the geometry is the existing line the project follows, not a final route.
Map location unavailable. This plant remains part of the source inventory and tables.
