Start of Construction

Project construction will begin in April 2024, and will last approximately four to six months.

Throughout the rebuild process, we will:

• Engage landowners and the surrounding community to provide details about the planned rebuild and address questions or concerns.
• Clear vegetation along access routes and within transmission line right-of-way.
• Determine pole locations and finalize pole design.
• Identify construction and maintenance access routes.
• Install new transmission line poles and conductor wires.
• Remove 38 existing poles and the conductor wires connecting them.
• Test and energize the rebuilt transmission line.
