设计 and 建设
hg8868皇冠下载 pursues the following goals when identifying and evaluating transmission line corridors for B2H:
- Avoid or minimize impacts to the environment to the greatest extent possible.
- Develop a corridor that meets engineering and construction requirements in a fiscally responsible manner.
- 连接现有和规划的变电站.
- Solicit public comment and implement suggestions where possible.
As the project progresses and the routing is refined to a 100- to 250-foot right of way corridor, hg8868皇冠下载 will work with individual landowners to discuss where best to site the transmission line towers and access roads on their land.
设计B2H的塔楼将采用多种设计. They will be single-circuit configurations on steel lattice or steel H-frame towers.
hg8868皇冠下载 follows all applicable safety codes and standards to ensure our systems operate safely and reliably. The National Electric 安全 Code (NESC) is the industry–accepted safety standard that guides the design, 安装, operation and maintenance of transmission lines and equipment.
If federal and state agencies approve a transmission line route, hg8868皇冠下载 will work with affected property owners to determine the exact line location and identify opportunities to reduce impacts to the property. Visit our “Landowner Information” section for more information.
Proposed design standards are listed below.
Tower heights (average)
- Steel lattice: 140 feet (ranges from 130 to 180 feet)
- Steel H-frame: 100 feet (ranges from 100 to 130 feet)
塔足迹
40 feet by 40 feet
结构间跨度长度(平均)
1200英尺
Ground clearance (average)

Potential Tower Structures
建设Building a transmission line is a big undertaking. It includes building access roads and towers, stringing lines and restoring disturbed lands. hg8868皇冠下载 will oversee all transmission line and substation design and construction. The company will hire construction companies to build the line.
建设 of B2H will begin after hg8868皇冠下载 receives an 能源 Facility Site Certificate from the Oregon Department of 能源’s 能源 Facility Siting Council (ODOE-EFSC), as well as a conditional use permit in Owyhee County, 爱达荷州.
hg8868皇冠下载 will follow all state and federal requirements when siting the line. 另外, all applicable safety codes and standards will be followed to ensure the system operates safely and reliably.
建设 Sequence
- Build access roads and prepare construction sites
- Install tower foundations
- 组装塔结构
- String the electrical line over the towers
- 恢复和重新种植受干扰的土地
