Western States Eye New Regional Transmission Organization
Staff -- Consulting-Specifying Engineer, 3/1/2005
A new regional transmission organization (RTO) is now being seriously pursued to unify transmission operations across seven western U.S. states and Canada's British Columbia. Proponents have supported such a move for almost 10 years, according to a recent article in the Portland Oregonian. The new group could potentially cover areas of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming.
