July 23 ID Energy Update: Transmission, geothermal, and Areva
By Liz Woodruff @ 5:17 PM :: 14 Views :: Nuclear Power, Idaho Energy Updates
|
|
Transmission lines are the theme of the week. The Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service have set a series of scoping meetings to gather public sentiment on Idaho Power’s proposed Boardman to Hemingway transmission line from Owyhee County south of the Snake River to Boardman, Ore., on the Columbia River. Meanwhile, BLM said it’s delaying this summer’s release of an environmental study on the proposed Gateway West transmission line from the coal and renewable energy generation plants in central Wyoming across southern Idaho to the Hemingway substation in Owyhee County to more closely examine such sensitive issues as sage grouse habitat. And Boise- based U.S. Geothermal is making progress on a new geothermal power plant at its San Emidio project in Nevada, while the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has finally agreed to hold a second Idaho hearing on the controversial proposed Areva uranium enrichment factory near Idaho Falls.

NRC: Listen to All of Idaho!
By Beatrice Brailsford @ 8:12 AM :: 256 Views :: Nuclear Power, Action Alert!
|
|
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will release the draft Environmental Impact Statement on the uranium enrichment plant Areva wants to build in eastern Idaho sometime in July. The NRC has already scheduled a hearing on the draft for August 12 in Idaho Falls. But it looks as if the NRC is going to ignore a request by many Idahoans, including the Mayor of Boise, that it hold an additional hearing on the draft EIS in Idaho’s capital city. You can help catch the NRC’s attention by contacting your Member of Congress right now.

AEHI Takes Nuke Reactor Road Show to Payette County
By Liz Woodruff @ 3:58 PM :: 958 Views :: Nuclear Power, Bruneau nuclear reactor, SRA News Releases
|
|
The would-be developer of a nuclear reactor on the Snake River in Elmore County now says he wants to build a reactor in Payette County, despite the fact billionaire energy tycoon Warren Buffett spent millions of dollars studying a Payette site only to conclude the project didn’t make economic sense. This is the third Idaho county Alternate Energy Holdings, Inc., has shopped for in its quest to build a reactor for which it has no money or property.

ID Energy Updae 8 14:AEHI Woes, Power Plan and Idaho Renewable Zones
By Liz Woodruff @ 2:49 PM :: 651 Views :: Nuclear Power, Clean and Renewable Energy, Bruneau nuclear reactor, Idaho Energy Updates
|
|
The Northwest Power & Conservation Council was expected to release its long-awaited draft 6th Power Plan for public comment and review Tuesday, but members from Idaho and Montana blocked the release. And the Office of Energy Resources is taking proposals from cities and counties to fund “renewable energy enterprise zone” projects, while Idaho Power is holding a series of meetings in Idaho and Oregon to answer questions about its proposed transmission line from Canyon County to Boardman, Oregon. Finally, AEHI filed its most recent quarterly report to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and its outlook is shakier than ever.
