Opportunities for Stakeholder Engagement

As each Regional Review is initiated, opportunities to engage in that review will be posted as Announcements to the Home Page of this website. Opportunities for involvement will be posted as they become available. Stakeholders will be notified at least 15 days in advance of any meetings, webinars, or solicitations for comments. Outreach may include webinars, meetings, web postings, or other appropriate means.

We welcome stakeholder participation during the reviews of the Section 368 energy corridors and in the development of potential corridor revisions, deletions, and additions. We value any input you have and look forward to your feedback on how the Agencies can improve the West-wide energy corridors to better serve the energy transmission and distribution infrastructure needs of the western United States.

The Settlement requires an open and transparent process for Regional Reviews, with engagement by tribes, States, local governments, and other interested parties as part of the process. For more information about the Regional Reviews, including documents, and implementation, see the Regional Reviews page.

Questions or comments on the Section 368 Corridors are welcome at anytime and can be submitted electronically to [email protected]
