PGE considered opportunities for routing in this area along Interstate 5 and Interstate 205; however, following coordination with the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), PGE eliminate alternative route links along these two interstate freeways as ODOT’s regulations and policies restrict placing electric transmission lines in or adjacent to highway right-of-way absent demonstration of “extreme hardship.” As a general matter, the agency does “not allow longitudinal installations within the right of way.”
