Description

Since 1971, construction of facilities for the production and transmission of energy has required a site certificate from the state. This case is the first contested proceeding under the energy facility siting act, now ORS 469.300-469.570, 469.992. On application of respondent Portland General Electric Company (PGE), respondent Nuclear and Thermal Energy Council (now renamed Energy Facility Siting Council) recommended to the Governor that he issue a site certificate to PGE for construction of two nuclearfueled power plants at a site in Gilliam County known as Pebble Springs. Two individual petitioners whom the council had admitted as intervenors in its proceedings obtained review in the Court of Appeals. That court affirmed the councils order, 25 Or App 469, 550 P2d 465 (1976), and petitioner Marbet sought review in this court. We allowed the petition in order to resolve issues of substance and procedure important to the administration of the statute. We reverse and remand to the Court of Appeals with directions to remand to the council for additional proceedings.
