Supplement Analysis for the Transmission System Vegetation Management Program FEIS (DOE/EIS-0285/SA-56)
2ULRQ�$OEUR�2O\PSLD�5HJLRQDO�0DQDJHU
Proposed Action: Vegetation Management for the following electric yards located in the Ross District: Cape Horn North Bonneville Stevenson Carson Underwood Troutdale Cascade Locks Acton Ross 345kV and J.D. Alcoa Sifton St. Johns Ostrander McLoughlin Proposed by: Bonneville Power Administration (BPA). Description of the Proposal: BPA proposes to maintain a weed-free environment in the electrical substations located within the Olympia Region’s Ross District. Description of the Proposal: BPA proposes to manage vegetation inside and around electrical substations and associated facilities. Vegetation management within the substation shall include the bare ground management of all graveled areas. These areas shall primarily be maintained with the use of herbicides. The management of vegetation outside the substation and associated facilities shall include: 1) bare ground management of perimeter roads and parking areas; 2) mechanical and/or spot herbicide control of some broadleafs and noxious weeds; 3) mowing, fertilizing, and broadleaf control of landscaped lawn areas; 4) weed control in ornamental shrub areas; and 4) areas requiring only mechanical control to manage unwanted/danger trees, grasses, and shrubs. Analysis: Please see the attached files. Each file contains detailed checklists, drawings, aerial photographs, and topographic maps for the resources present and the mitigation measures to be applied.

memorandum
TO:
2Findings: This Supplement Analysis finds that 1) the proposed actions are substantially consistent with the Transmission System Vegetation Management Program FEIS (DOE/EIS-0285) and ROD, and; 2) there are no new circumstances or information relevant to environmental concerns and bearing on the proposed actions or their impacts. Therefore, no further NEPA documentation is required. /s/ Elaine Stratton Elaine Stratton Environmental Protection Specialist - KEP-Z/992 CONCUR:/s/Thomas C. McKinney DATE:04/26/02 Thomas C.
