Public Comments Due On Gateway West Line

CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — The U.S. Bureau of Land Management is accepting public comments on the proposed Gateway West Transmission Line Project in Wyoming and Idaho through Oct. 28.

The federal agency says that all comments postmarked by that date will be incorporated into the final environmental impact statement on the project.

Idaho Power Co. and Rocky Mountain Power are behind the $2 billion Gateway West project. It would involve building a 1,150-mile line to carry wind and other power from Wyoming to Idaho and other points.
