STOPB2H COALITION | ACTION ALERT REMINDERS:

#1 Final Comments on Idaho Power's 2021 Energy Plan

Raise Your Voice
Tomorrow!

Tomorrow, Tuesday, Nov 29^th is the Final Opportunity to comment on Idaho Power’s 2021 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The hearing will be with the Oregon Public Utilities Commission (OPUC) via Zoom starting at 1:30 p.m. (pacific time). Here is the LINK.

This time the rubber is really meeting the road and we need to double-down on the budget for the B2H. It hasn't been transparently updated since 2016. The commission is supposed to rule on the "least-cost, least-risk" portfolio in the plan. Tell the OPUC to do the right thing; Don't leave the ratepayers on the hook paying for the cost-overruns of this boondoggle into perpetuity!

Again, here is the link for the Zoom. The meeting begins at 1:30 (pacific time). They prefer that you sign-in to provide comment 24 hrs before, but it’s not necessary. This link has additional info.

Please give Idaho Power the best (not) "Giving Tuesday" Gift ever: Call-in and testify against their despicable project. Here are talking points for public testimony LINK.

2nd ACTION ALERT REMINDER:

#2 Special Hearing on Eminent Domain Monday 12/5
for public comment on Idaho Power's request for a CPCN (certificate for public convenience and necessity), also known as Eminent Domain. This hearing will also be with the Oregon Public Utilities Commission (OPUC) via Zoom.

Here's the Easy LINK to find everything you need to get to the meeting -- or to write if you prefer. (Do both; doesn't hurt.) See Talking Points and Tips, HERE .

Next Week: Raise Your Voice!
