Abstract
The Proposed Action would be to amend the current ROW OR-01469 to recognize and authorize the Ontario-Huntington portion of the transmission line under Title V of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 as amended (43 USC 1761) and the regulations found in 43 CFR 2800. This portion of the line is approximately 6.2 miles in length, 100 feet wide, encumbering approximately 75.14 acres of public land. With the amendment the entire length of the Ontario to Quartz line would be 13.13 miles in length, 100 feet wide, encumbering 159.17 acres, more or less. Further, the Proposed Action would amend ROW OR-01469 to allow IPC to grade a portion of an existing road and establish three new short service roads to access the existing 138 kV transmission line from Ontario to the Quartz Junction Substation (line 423). This work would improve access to five structures. The ROW grant would also authorize future O&M activities on the new service roads that would be created outside the current 100-ft ROW.
