A D M I N I S T R A T I O N McNary Substation Project Notice From January 2015 to December 2017, the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) will make major improvements to the McNary Substation in Umatilla, Oregon. The substation improvements are necessary to meet the growing power needs in the area, to integrate new generating resources, and to support a safe and reliable BPA transmission system. The project will physically expand the substation and include the installation of power transformers, circuit breakers, disconnect switches, and other equipment. Construction activities will normally take place on weekdays between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. There will be increased noise levels typically associated with construction activities and, at times, there will be a slower traffi c fl ow on Hwy 730 due to the movement of heavy equipment. For your safety, please be aware of construction activities and equipment in the area around the substation. Your patience and cooperation during this time of construction are appreciated. For more information please visit www.bpa.gov/goto/McNary or contact the BPA Project Manager Amy Gardner toll free at 800-282-3717 or amgardner@ bpa.gov. 1/14 Cineplex Show Times $5 Movie Matinee 1/21 12:00 PM MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE TAKEN 3 (PG13) 4:20 7:00 THE GAMBLER (R) 9:50 WILD (R) 4:00 6:40 9:10 HOBBIT: BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES (PG13) 2D: 9:40 3D : 3:20* 6:30 UNBROKEN (PG13) 3:30* 6:20 9:20 NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM: SECRET OF THE TOMB (PG) 5:00 7:20 9:30 Credit & Debit Cards accepted Cineplex gift cards now available wildhorseresort.com 541-966-1850 Pendleton, OR I-84 - Exit 216
