Study Team: West of McNary Reinforcement (WOMR)
West of McNary Reinforcement (WOMR) Overview
The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is seeking an Accepted Rating for the West of McNary (WOM), West of Slatt (WOS) and West of John Day (WOJ) paths due to the West of McNary Reinforcement (WOMR) Project. The WOMR Project will increase transfer capability across the WOM, WOS and WOJ paths which will enable BPA to provide transmission service for proposed renewable energy from the Lower Snake River, McNary and Lower Columbia Basin areas to the Northwest (NW) load centers west of the Cascade Mountains and to the California – Oregon AC Intertie (COI) and the Pacific DC Intertie (PDCI). Based on historical data, the flows on these paths peak during heavy summer loading conditions.
The West of McNary project is currently going through the Phase 2 Rating process via the WECC Technical Study Coordination Group.
