Vantage to Pomona Heights Chapter 2 <br />230 kV Transmission Line Project FEIS Proposed Action and Alternatives <br /> PAGE 2-60 <br />ROUTE SEGMENT LENGTH (MILES) <br />NNR-4o/NNR-4u 4.5 <br />NNR-5 1.8 <br />NNR-6o/NNR-6u 6.4 <br />NNR-7 8.2 <br />NNR-8 2.7 <br />MR-1 11.9 <br /> <br />Route Segment 1a/NNR-1 would begin at the existing Pomona Heights Substation, proceed south for a <br />short distance, and then turn eastward along the southern property line of residences located along Sage <br />Trail Road for approximately 3,100 feet before turning north and intersecting Sage Trail Road and <br />connecting with an existing distribution line. Route Segment 1a/NNR-1 would generally follow Sage <br />Trail Road to the JBLM YTC property boundary. This route segment would cross the existing Pacific <br />Power Pomona-Wanapum 230 kV Transmission Line. Route Segment 1a/NNR-1 is considered for <br />overhead construction only and is common for all Action Alternatives. The total length of the NNR-1 <br />route segment is 2.4 miles. <br />Route Segment 1b would be located just within the JBLM YTC boundary and would parallel an existing <br />perimeter firebreak road. This route segment would proceed east from Sage Trail Road for 5.1 miles <br />before turning south for 4.3 miles. Route Segment 1b proceeds on a diagonal to the southeast for 1.7 <br />miles before turning east for 1.4 miles. The total length of Route Segment 1b would be 12.5 miles. <br />Segment 1b is considered for overhead construction only. <br />Route Segment 1c would parallel the western and southern boundary of the JBLM YTC on private land. <br />This route segment would proceed east from Sage Trail Road just outside the JBLM YTC boundary for <br />5.1 miles before turning south along the JBLM YTC boundary for 4.7 miles to the vicinity of Mieras <br />Road. Route Segment 1c would then proceed on a diagonal for approximately 0.4 mile before turning east <br />for 2.8 miles along Mieras Road south of the JBLM YTC boundary, for a total distance of 12.9 miles. <br />Route Segment 1c is considered for overhead construction only. <br />Route Segment 2a would extend south of the 1a/NNR-1-1b-2a route node on private property paralleling <br />the boundary of a DNR state trust land parcel for a distance of one mile. Route Segment 2a is considered <br />for overhead construction only. <br />Route Segment 2b would extend east from the 2a-2b-2c route intersection on private property for four <br />miles to the intersection of a BLM-adminstered land parcel. The BLM parcel would be crossed with an <br />aerial crossing of 970 feet. No structures would be located on the BLM parcel. The route segment would <br />then proceed east on private property along the southern boundary of JBLM YTC for another 12.1 miles. <br />The total length of Route Segment 2b would be 16.3 miles. Route Segment 2b is considered for overhead <br />construction only. <br />Route Segment 2c would extend southeast from the 2a-2b-2c route intersection for 8.6 miles on private <br />property to the intersection of the existing PacifiCorp, Union Gap-Midway 230 kV Transmission Line <br />and the BPA Midway-Moxee 115 kV Transmission Line. The route segment would cross to the south side <br />of the Midway-Moxee 115 kV Transmission Line and would proceed parallel to this existing line for 8.6 <br />miles before crossing to the north of the existing transmission lines and continuing for a distance of one <br />mile. The total length of Route Segment 2c would be 18.1 miles. Route Segment 2c is considered for <br />overhead construction only.
